Raising standards to the next level

Elevated work Two solutions in one The safety standard for work using mobile elevating work platforms, otherwise known as personnel baskets, keeps getting stricter. The current standard, EN 280, places high safety requirements on both crane and basket. And, given that safety has always been a major concern at Hiab, your new HIAB XS HiPro crane can now be fitted with a personnel basket – in full compliance with European standard EN 280. We call this option Mobile Elevating Work Platform, MEWP. HIAB XS MEWP is a complete, certified solution for crane and personnel basket. In addition to...

Load handling or elevated work Flexibility and productivity are keywords for our customers. Tool changes must be done quickly and with little effort. So, Hiab’s solution for mobile elevating work platforms has focused on simplicity – making it easy to use a personnel basket.

This solution complies fully with European standards and safety regulations. A HIAB XS HiPro fitted with the MEWP option gives you a complete, certified solution for crane and personnel basket...
