RS Industrial Services (RSIS), a leading independent supplier founded in 2001, is excited to display its expertise at the 2025 Manufacturing & Engineering Northeast Show. With over two decades of experience, RSIS has become a trusted partner for businesses across the UK, delivering integrated solutions in cranes and lifting equipment, industrial and safety supplies, and accredited training services. Recently crowned Tees Business of the Year 2025, RSIS is committed to helping industries run safely, efficiently, and productively covering everything from equipment procurement and installation to workforce development and compliance.
At the heart of RSIS’s unique selling points is its comprehensive approach, ensuring seamless support for industrial operations. As a full-service cranes and lifting partner, RSIS offers bespoke and off-the-shelf solutions including jib cranes, hoists, light cranes, mobile gantry systems, overhead cranes, and advanced control systems. Their highly skilled engineers provide proactive 43-point servicing, thorough inspections, certifications, and 24/7 emergency breakdown support with a rapid 4-hour response time. Trusted by major players like British Steel, Caterpillar Skinningrove, and SeAH Wind, RSIS minimises downtime through extensive parts inventory and refurbishment services for older equipment, such as inverter drives and radio systems.
In industrial and safety supplies, RSIS equips workforces with essential gear from branches in Billingham and Gateshead. Their range includes personal protective equipment (PPE), maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) products, workwear, storage, and handling solutions, and lifting equipment. A standout innovation is their automated vending solutions and stores management, which use point-of-use dispensing technology for real-time inventory control, reducing waste and optimising stock levels for a more organised workspace.
Training is another cornerstone, delivered at RSIS’s state-of-the-art centre with dedicated classrooms and practical areas. Accredited by IPAF, RTITB, and recognised by the HSE, courses cover abrasive wheels, forklift trucks, MEWPs and working at height, lifting and slinging, and tailored programs for specific business needs. This focus on upskilling aligns with RSIS’s recent investments, including doubling their engineering team to thirty-five professionals, implementing a new ERP system for better data management, and expanding to two operational sites for enhanced sustainability and efficiency.
