Navy

In the specialised world of maritime engineering, few systems require the combination of precision, safety, and design integration demanded by marine lifts. Emile van de Starre shared the company’s story, and we learned how the company has become a trusted supplier of superyacht lifts, naval lift systems, and offshore maritime elevators. After two years, Emile’s brother Jeroen bought shares, and both have been running the company successfully ever since.

On board yachts, offshore vessels, and naval ships, lift reliability is essential. While serious lift failures are rare, wear and unexpected faults can all affect lift operation over time. At HML, our approach is built around one clear objective: the lift must keep running. Through structured inspections, careful spare-part planning, and fast action when issues arise, we minimise downtime while keeping maintenance practical and cost-effective.

HML’s recertification process represents a deep commitment to quality, safety, and proactive lift maintenance, ensuring that every onboard lift system, whether a guest lift, crew lift, cargo lift or dumbwaiter, continues to function flawlessly.

When choosing the right lift services for your yacht, offshore, or naval vessel, we, at Holland Marine Lifts, stand out as the premier choice for a combination of reliability, innovation, and seamless integration of luxury with practicality. Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction ensures that our annual lift inspections are handled with the utmost professionalism and precision for every project, whether it involves recertification, repairs, or replacement parts.
