A Legacy In Lifting
History of the Coffing EC
Founded by Fred Coffing in 1918, Coffing Hoist pioneered heavy lifting tech. The company later engineered the EC electric chain hoist series for demanding industrial service. Today, the lineage includes specialized EC-V, EC Turnover, and ED models, continuing a legacy of reliable American material handling.
