Nationwide Platforms provides the construction sector with a comprehensive range of hired Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWPs), training, and innovative safety systems across the UK.

We have a dedicated team of highly trained and experienced surveyors who help you select the best MEWPs to meet your requirements, considering factors including:

Ground conditions
Machine height, width and weight restrictions
Pedestrian & Traffic Management
Internal & external environments
Special PPE requirements
Overhead obstructions and ground conditions
Drop zones & other potential hazards

We can help you find the equipment to undertake every stage of a project efficiently and safely. Our customers use MEWPs to provide solutions across the whole construction cycle on projects large and small:

4 Wheel drive MEWPs to ensure work isn’t hampered by ground conditions
Small scissor lifts and electric booms ideal for working indoors and accessing tight spaces
Low-level platforms for internal building fitting out and maintenance
A range of material handling attachments including SkyRakPlus™, for storing materials weighing up to 600kg, e.g. building frame and envelope materials
Tracked Booms for work in confined spaces or on sensitive surfaces
High level access booms for up to 57m
Scissor lifts with access up to 34m

Our innovative SkySiren® system, a pressure sensitive system designed to detect potentially fatal operator entrapment and acts as an ‘emergency switch’ to stop movement and alert colleagues on the ground. SkySiren PCS™ (Pre-Crush Sensor) alerts operators to potential entrapment through ultrasonic sensors which cover high-risk areas. These features help ensure consistent safety during all phases of construction, but especially during the building frame and envelope phases where operators may be working closely to trap and crush hazards.

Our BlueSky range also includes:

SkyScreen™ netting fitted to baskets to reduce falling object risks
Sky Shield™ to help reduce disease transmission
Sky Sentry® to prevent unauthorised MEWP operation
Ability to create bespoke material handling attachments

Your safety is our priority, and as such we collaborate with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and advise on safety standards such as GEIS6, BS 8460. In addition, we conform to each customer’s own site-specific safety protocols.

As an accredited trainer, we can also provide the knowledge you need to do your work safely and effectively. Our training courses offer qualifications from IPAF, PASMA, IOSH, CITB, CPCS and others. Our most popular courses include:

IPAF Operator, Demonstrator and Instructor courses
IPAF MEWPs for Managers and Powered Access Licence Plus (PAL +)
Courses accredited by PASMA, IOSH, Green Cross and other national organisations
Site-specific training, including Toolbox Talks and equipment licences

Training can be provided at one of our local training centres or on your own site, and a mixture of practical and virtual training aids are available.
