Liftstar Holding GmbH

Liftstar Holding GmbH, commonly known as the Liftstar Gruppe, is a German family-owned company headquartered in Cologne that specialises in home mobility solutions. Its core business is the sale, installation and servicing of stairlifts, home lifts (platform and cabin lifts for domestic use) and wheelchair lifts, marketed under the promise of enabling people to remain mobile and independent in their own homes. The group describes itself as the market leader in its segment, with more than 330,000 lifts sold and over 45 years of experience in the home-lift business. The company operates a nationwide advisory and service network in Germany. According to its own corporate communications, it employs more than 400 advising experts and around 80 customer-service staff, and it offers round-the-clock customer service after purchase. Its product range covers seated stairlifts for all types of staircases, home lifts that move between floors independently of a staircase, and wheelchair lifts suitable for common active and electric wheelchairs. The group also promotes public subsidy programmes for accessibility conversions, citing possible grants of up to €4,180 per person. Liftstar positions itself as a quality- and safety-focused provider, emphasising innovation, reliability and tailored lift solutions that improve quality of life for people with limited mobility. As a family business from Cologne, it frames its commercial activity as a social mission — "we make home possible" — serving an ageing population that wishes to stay in familiar surroundings. The group has also publicly disclosed that it became the target of a criminal cyberattack, and it maintains a dedicated information page for customers on that matter. Because the company is privately held and family-owned, detailed financial figures and ownership structures are not publicly reported in the available sources. Its brand architecture includes the Liftstar name itself and associated product brands such as Lifta, which appears in its communications about used and premium lift solutions.

Liftstar Holding GmbH, trading as the Liftstar Gruppe, is a German family-owned company based in Cologne that has built its business around home mobility. According to its own corporate communications, the group draws on more than 45 years of experience in the home-lift sector and has grown into a market leader in Germany, with over 330,000 lifts sold. The company's history is closely tied to the broader development of the German accessibility market, in which an ageing population and public subsidy programmes for barrier-free housing conversions have created sustained demand for stairlifts, home lifts and wheelchair lifts. Over the decades, Liftstar has expanded from a lift supplier into a nationwide service organisation. It reports a network of more than 400 advising experts across Germany and around 80 employees in customer service, and it offers round-the-clock support to customers after purchase. Its product portfolio has broadened to cover seated stairlifts for all types of staircases, home lifts that operate independently of a staircase, and wheelchair lifts compatible with common active and electric wheelchairs. The group also markets used and refurbished lifts alongside premium new solutions, and it promotes public grants for accessibility conversions, citing subsidies of up to €4,180 per person. As a family business from Cologne, Liftstar frames its commercial mission in social terms — "we make home possible" — positioning its lifts as a means of preserving independence and quality of life for people with limited mobility. The group operates a portfolio of brands, including the Liftstar name and the Lifta brand associated with premium lift solutions. In recent years the company has also had to address information-security challenges: it publicly disclosed that it had become the target of a criminal cyberattack and created a dedicated page to keep customers informed. Detailed financial data, ownership breakdowns and a precise founding year are not disclosed in the available public sources.
