Initially founded in 1989, Pro-Direct Industriel Inc.
(PDI) implemented sound engineering equipment
solutions within the material handling industry.
As an exclusive representative for many HighTech Industrial Products, PDI soon became a
systems integrator offering Turnkey Installations
specializing in mechanical and electrical modernizations on all types of Custom Cranes.
PDIs solid reputation achieved by successfully completing major crane projects for the
most demanding applications had ultimately
forced PDI to expand operations in order to
meet increased customers demands.
In 1990, PDI introduced the engineering
and fabrication of fully enclosed and
ventilated Custom Built Operators Crane
Cabins and Electrical Control Rooms, which
soon became a standard of excellence
within the complete range of PDI products
& services.
In 1998, PDI purchased Station 2000,
custom built Operator Stations, in order

to provide ergonomics and exibility while

complementing the Operators Crane Cabins.
In 2005, PDI pursued its efforts in offering Sound
Engineering Solutions by joining the world of
Custom Cranes manufacturing and incorporated
an extensive line of standard overhead & gantry
cranes, jib cranes, monorail systems, trolleys,
hoists, and specialized below the hook devices.
In 2010, PDI Solutions was launched; a division
fully dedicated in providing Custom Overhead &
Gantry Cranes while using PDIs basic principles
employed since day one... that is source the
best Industrial Equipments & Fabricators while
building the equipment in accordance to customer
specications.
PDI Solutions continues a long standing tradition
of delivering the highest quality product supported
by a dedicated team of highly qualied technical
personnel.
PDI Solutions, your Standard & Custom Crane care
center, looks forward in serving you soon.
