EXCITING NEWS! OUR POWERED ACCESS FLEET IS MAKING A MAJOR TRANSITION...TO GREEN POWER

Introducing the newest additions to our powered access division - the hybrid boom lifts and electric rough terrain scissor lifts from Dingli. And we’re thrilled to announce that MPH will be the first company in the UK to receive the new Hybrid Booms. These new models of 16 and 20 metre Dingli Hybrid Booms will be on display at the Vertikal Days event, taking place in May at the East of England Show Ground, Peterborough.

In the construction industry, access equipment such as boom lifts and scissors lifts are essential for working at heights. However, the use of diesel-powered machines is often accompanied by a range of problems including environmental pollution and high fuel costs. Therefore, we have decided to take a step forward in addressing these problems by transitioning our powered access division fleet from diesel-powered equipment to hybrid booms and electric-only rough terrain scissors.

We work closely with our customers, and we understand the importance of providing equipment that is reliable, efficient, and environmentally friendly. We have invested in new hybrid booms that operate with an electric motor and a diesel generator. The electric motor is primarily used to power the machine, while the diesel engine is utilised only when recharging the batteries. By transitioning to hybrid booms, we are providing more power and lower fuel consumption than traditional diesel models. This ensures that our customers can benefit from increased productivity, extended work times, and reduced environmental impact.

We have also introduced electric-only rough terrain scissors that offer superior performance, traction, and stability compared to diesel-powered counterparts. Our electric scissors are equipped with a powerful motor that reduces the need for frequent maintenance and enables our customers to work efficiently without the noise and pollution that is typical of dieselpowered equipment. The electric-only scissors are ideal for indoor and outdoor applications that require clean operation, quick setup, and high lift capacity.

Our transition to hybrid booms and electric-only rough terrain scissors allows us to offer our clients access equipment that provides superior performance, high manoeuvrability, and more significant energy cost-savings compared to dieselpowered equipment. Additionally, our new fleet will help reduce noise and air pollution on job sites, making them a more eco-friendly option.

At MPH, we are committed to providing our customers with equipment that is not only reliable but also more environmentally friendly. Our transition to hybrid booms and electric-only rough terrain scissors is a step towards a sustainable future, and we are proud to be taking this initiative. We believe the future of access equipment in the construction industry is electric and hybrid, and we will continue to invest in this technology to keep up with the changing needs of our customers.
