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.
