It is particularly active in the areas of achieving: more cost effective procurement; fair and prompt payment and protection of cash retentions; supporting excellence and innovation and the early involvement of specialist contractors in construction projects, to ensure more effective delivery.

Lift and Escalator Industry Association

The Lift and Escalator Industry Association (LEIA) is an advisory body for the lift and escalator industry. It was formed in 1997 through the merger of two-long standing associations dating back to 1932.[1] They represent around 95% of specialist contractors in its sector.

The LEIA operates Liftex, a trade show and exhibition for the lifts and escalator industry, every three years.[2] Liftex 2019 was held on 15-16 May 2019.[3] A different exhibition with a similar name is operated by the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association.[4]
