The British public vote Stannah Stairlifts as a Superbrand

Stannah Stairlifts announced as one of the UK’s strongest brands We are proud to announce that Stannah Stairlifts, has been awarded Superbrand status for the second year running and is one of the UK’s leading brands in the 2009/10 Superbrands list.
Stannah has continued the trend from last year as the only company within the mobility industry to ever make it into the top 500 and has moved up the rankings by 25 places.
The announcement follows an independent selection process which tapped into the views of over 2,100 British consumers.
The annual Superbrands survey, now in its 11th year, has become a key barometer on the strength of brands across a wide variety of sectors. The selection process was independently administered by The Centre for Brand Analysis (TCBA) on behalf of the Superbrands organisation
Stephen Cheliotis, Chief Executive of The Centre for Brand Analysis said, “In an economic downturn possession of a powerful, well regarded brand is more important than ever and provides the brand owner with significant advantages over weaker branded rivals. As such the annual Superbrands’ ranking is not just an interesting and thought provoking league table but an indication of the potency of each underlying business. Brands that stimulate desire and drive volume and margin growth are essential in an ever competitive and difficult market place. Each brand awarded Superbrand status cannot only celebrate their success in creating a positive image but be more confident about their brand’s potential in the future.”
Patrick Stannah of Stannah Stairlifts said: “This result is fantastic news for Stannah as we’re very proud of our brand and the values we stand for which are in line with the Superbrands required traits of quality, reliability and distinction within the market.  We’ve almost 180 years experience as the Stannah Group and have constantly striven to set an example of excellence in our products and customer service, as well as actively show we are a caring brand through various campaigns and being a voice for the less abled and ageing generation.  We’re delighted to be in the top 500 and like we’ve done this year we hope to keep working our way up the rankings!”
