MEWP handling

HSE guidelines state that material
handling at height using MEWPs
(Mobile Elevating Work Platforms)
should avoid several key risks,
including resting materials on the
handrails, avoiding manual handling
where possible, and ensuring that
materials are securely stored to
reduce the risk of materials falling
from height. Expert in platform
manufacture and hire, Nationwide
Platforms offers a range of solutions
for various handling challenges,
ranging from piping and
plasterboard, to ducting and timber
cross-sections weighing up to 250kg.

In many cases, the company will
provide a bespoke solution, taking
into account not only the materials
that require lifting, but also the
working environment itself.
