The LUKAS Hydraulic company was established in 1948, manufacturing industrial hydraulic products. In the 1950’s, pioneering re-railing equipment was developed and added to the range to enable the maneuvering of heavy rail vehicles and in 1972, the innovative pioneers at LUKAS Rescue developed the world’s first hydraulic rescue equipment to enable the extrication of road crash victims.
Throughout the years, LUKAS have continued to lead the development of rescue tools and equipment, with such innovations as e-draulic battery powered tools, submersible capability and the latest e3 technology providing greater power and control than ever before, making conditions safer for first responders and greatly improving patient outcomes in rescue conditions and saving countless lives.
