Haulotte China at the IPAF Asia Conference

Haulotte attended the International Powered Access Federation (IPAF) Asia conference held on 17 July  in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. On this occasion, the Chinese subsidiary showcased Haulotte’s innovations regarding operators’ safety.

Last year, Haulotte was the first manufacturer to become an “IPAF sustaining member.” This worldwide partnership highlights the group’s commitment to promote the safe and effective use of powered access. Indeed, Haulotte has developed many innovation-driven features to promote the safety of operators and those delivering the machines.

Engineered to reduce the risk of overhead crushing injuries, the Haulotte Activ’Shield Bar is fully integrated into the control panel and combines simplicity and robust design. In an entrapment situation, the operator is pushed towards the bar and the machine stops automatically.

Haulotte’s Activ’Lighting System enables operators to safely carry out loading and unloading operations, even in limited visibility conditions. Lighting points placed around the machine help the operator safely access, accurately control, and identify obstacles in the working area.

Tim Mo, marketing manager at Haulotte China said “Safety and training are essential when offering work-at-height solutions. This event was the occasion to demonstrate our expertise and share knowledge of the powered access industry.”
