Speedy Increases Reach With Exclusive Access Investment
The new Push Around Vehicles (PAVs) and self-propelled scissor lifts from Custom Equipment’s Hy-Brid range will be available for rental exclusively through Speedy in the UK.
There will be three products available – the S1030, P830 and S830 models – that provide working heights of up to 4.87m and 4.27m respectively.
Speedy currently has the UK’s largest range of low level access equipment available and the business also offers training and advice to its customers on how to work safely at height - the biggest cause of fatal accidents and serious injuries on construction sites.
Andy Connor, supply chain director at Speedy, said: “Manufacturers like Custom Equipment are producing increasingly sophisticated low-level access equipment which helps people to work safely and efficiently at height.
“These three models in particular are amongst the most advanced available today. Our customers are increasingly requesting lightweight and quiet machines like these which can be used across light computer flooring, where point loading is crucial and within an array of environments that dictate low noise levels like offices and hospitals.”
