Two decades of AMH

Listen to this article

All Material Handling, Inc. (AMH) marks 22 years of unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction, quality products, and expert service.

Founded in Chicago by industry veteran Peter Brettner, AMH was built on a simple yet powerful principle: success comes from putting the customer first. Over two decades later, that philosophy remains the cornerstone of the company’s operations.

“From the beginning, we understood that customer service had to be more than just a phrase in a brochure—it had to drive everything we do,” said Brettner.

To fulfill this mission, AMH maintains a multi-million-dollar inventory across four strategically located U.S. service centers in Houston, TX; Des Moines, IA; Atlanta, GA; and Portland, OR, allowing same-day shipping and rapid nationwide delivery.

Despite operating with a lean team, AMH’s staff brings decades of industry knowledge and experience to the marketplace. The company continues to invest in technical and on-site training, empowering customers and enhancing safety. 

AMH’s product range stands out for its quality, innovation, and value. Its portfolio includes:

  • Hand and lever hoists, including the flagship LA Series (0.75 to 10 tons) and MA Series (0.5 to 30 tons), customizable to specific lift lengths.
  • A full line of Grade 100 chains, lifting accessories, and master links, with products manufactured in, Germany, Italy and Taiwan offering an exceptional value. 
  • As exclusive North American distributor of Cartec lifting accessories from Italy—AMH offers European quality at a competitive price.
  • A growing selection of stainless steel chains and fittings for specialized environments like pharmaceuticals, food processing, and marine industries.
  • Popular wire rope fittings, synthetic slings, hoist rings, and lifting clamps rounding out its extensive catalog.

“We take pride in delivering top-tier equipment and service—with a personal touch,” said Brettner. “When you reach out to AMH, you’ll speak with knowledgeable, friendly representatives who care about your needs.”
