JLG 

When you hire a JLG scissor lift, cherry picker or personnel lift, you know your workers are in excellent hands.

Power Towers 

Power Towers prides itself on safety, ergonomics, efficiency and sustainability. The handrail protection and automatic wheel locking keep their access platforms secure, while the ergonomic design ensures worker comfort. Power Towers even performs tests to ensure their MEWP designs minimise the forces acting on musculoskeletal stress points for worker health. 

And if you want to focus on sustainability clients, Power Towers have created the Ecolift and Pecolift, which rise through an operator rotating a handle rather than using batteries or a hydraulic system.

MEWP Brand FAQs

Why should I use a MEWP for my Work from Height task?

Plus, workers can conserve energy and reduce strain, as heavy equipment and materials can be lifted in the MEWP rather than having to be carried.
