Jack Byrne's Company Details
Golden Technologies is proud to be a true American manufacturer of lift chairs, mobility power scooters & power wheelchairs. Our headquarters in Old Forge, PA, is the largest facility in the world dedicated solely to the manufacturing of lift chairs. We are proud to provide jobs for more than 400 Americans, contributing to the strength of the economy. All Golden Products are Made with Domestic and Imported Parts.The history of Golden Technologies is a story that defines the American dream. Founded in 1985 by Robert Golden, Sr., and Fred Kiwak, Golden Technologies was founded on the pledge to "build it right the first time," a motto that still holds true today. In fact, that promise is proudly displayed on a banner hanging above our lift chair manufacturing floor, reminding our employees every day of the commitment we have to our customers. As a family-owned, family-operated company, Golden Technologies is committed to manufacturing the highest quality products in the durable medical equipment industry. Golden and Kiwak began manufacturing lift chairs in a one-car garage in West Pittston, PA, a small town where families worked hard to survive as the Pennsylvania coal mining era was ending. The pair partnered with some of the finest craftsmen in the region and worked together to design and build lift chairs that would withstand years of use. As their reputation for quality spread, the business grew, and quickly became a family operation, employing several members of the Golden and Kiwak families. Robert Golden's son, Richard, was one of the company's first employees. He was named CEO in 1991, a position he continues to hold today. Robert Golden, Sr. has since retired from the day to day activities. Kiwak continues to be actively involved as our Vice President of Research and Development. The Golden Technologies' leadership team was not satisfied being the best in the lift chair industry and soon began to expand into other areas of the home healthcare business.
