The sky’s the limit

Hertel has used products from
Nationwide Platforms’ BlueSky
range to drive new efficiencies and
protect safety across the energy
sector. For the purposes of installing
scaffolding required for a tank
refurbishment programme,
Nationwide Platforms provided a
specialist 40t, 34m scissor lift
equipped with the SkyRakPlus, an
attachment enabling up to 600kg of
large or bulky materials to be safely
secured at height, with the use of
moveable pins and straps.

Nationwide Platforms assisted in
finding a means of removing
hundreds of metres of redundant
piping weighing up to 150kg
throughout a major UK oil refinery.

It also provided a 12m scissor lift
equipped with the SkyHandler, a
hydraulic lift system capable of
precisely positioning materials,
resulting in savings of both time and
revenue for Hertel. Anti-entrapment,
security and training solutions have
also been provided to Hertel by
Nationwide Platforms.
