    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs)

    Mobile Elevating Work Platform (MEWP)

    A Mobile Elevating Work Platform (MEWP), also known as an aerial device, aerial lift, or cherry picker, is a mechanical platform designed to provide temporary access to elevated areas for workers, materials and equipment.

    Widely used in power generation plants (power stations) and heavy industry, such as petrochemical and refinery sites, MEWPs are essential for safe and efficient working at height.

    Types of MEWPs include scissor lifts, boom lifts, spider lifts, and trailer mounted boom lifts, each suited for specific tasks. They are commonly used for jobs like installing netting, cladding, steel erecting, and more.

    MEWPs adhere to strict safety standards, offering a more mobile and flexible alternative to steps, ladders or scaffolding, making them invaluable in industrial settings.

    Data Sources: Backed by trusted industry sources, the above information ensures accuracy and relevance. Visit the source links for further details.

    UK MEWPS offers a comprehensive range of Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) available for hire or rental, with flexible rental periods including 1 day, 2 days, and weekly options. Our selection caters to a wide variety of elevated tasks across industries and includes:

    • Scissor lifts: Ideal for vertical access in both indoor and outdoor environments.
    • Boom lifts (also known as cherry pickers): Suitable for tasks requiring horizontal and vertical reach.
    • Vertical Mast Boom Lifts: Ideal for working in tight spaces such as warehouse isles or retail store aisles with vertical-only reach.
    • Spider lifts: Designed for use on rough terrain or in confined spaces with tight access.
    • Trailer-mounted and Van-mounted MEWPs: Perfect for projects requiring mobility across outdoor and indoor locations. Each platform is classified under Group A or 3A/3B for safe and precise operations, ensuring compliance with industry standards​ (SDC Verifier)​ (UK MEWPS Ltd).

    Each platform is classified under Group A or 3A/3B for safe and precise operations, ensuring compliance with industry standards.

    At UK MEWPS, we provide a growing range of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) to ensure the safety of workers operating or assisting with Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs). Our safety consumables include:

    • MEWP safety harnesses: Essential for fall protection, ensuring the operator’s safety when working at height. Harnesses are a key component of fall arrest systems, recognised for meeting various safety standards globally, including EN 361 and EN 358​ (SDC Verifier)​ (Conger Industries).
    • MEWP safety helmets: Designed to protect the head from falling objects and impacts. Our helmets meet the EN 12492 standard, a European regulation that specifies safety requirements and testing methods for helmets used in mountaineering, climbing, and work at heights. This ensures protection from head injuries caused by falling objects or impacts with hard surfaces. You can learn more about EN 12492 on Wikipedia ​(UK MEWPS Ltd)​ (SDC Verifier).
    • Hi vis clothing: Enhances visibility, reducing the risk of accidents on busy work sites. Hi vis is critical for worker safety, especially in low-light conditions, as referenced in ISO 20471 ​(Occupational Health and Safety Blog).
    • Safety gloves: Provide grip and protection when handling tools and equipment at height. For expert glove selection guidance based on specific work industries, see our comprehensive guide here: Choosing Safety Gloves: Expert Glove Selection Guide for Work Industries. This guide covers key considerations and standards like EN 388 for mechanical protection ​(Conger Industries)​ (UK MEWPS Ltd).

    Each item meets industry safety standards, ensuring compliance with relevant regulations. Our range of safety consumables can be purchased alongside any MEWP rental or hire to ensure full safety coverage for your team.

    Data Sources: Backed by trusted industry sources, the above information ensures accuracy and relevance. Visit the source links for further details.

    Regular LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations) inspections ensure that Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) are safe to use by checking their structural integrity and functionality. These inspections help prevent accidents caused by faulty or unsafe equipment. Additionally, IPAF training certifies operators to safely operate MEWPs, ensuring they understand safety protocols, perform risk assessments and follow proper equipment operation standards.

    Both LOLER inspections and IPAF training are crucial for maintaining safety and compliance in industries that utilise MEWPs​ (SDC Verifier) ​(Occupational Health and Safety Blog) ​(Conger Industries).

    Data Sources: Backed by trusted industry sources, the above information ensures accuracy and relevance. Visit the source links for further details.

    MEWPs, such as scissor lifts and boom lifts, allow workers to quickly and safely reach elevated areas, reducing the need for time-consuming scaffolding setups. In industries such as construction, petrochemical facilities and energy plants (power generation), where low-level access is crucial, PAVs (Push Around Vertical platforms) have replaced many traditional access methods like scaffolding and ladders.

    For a detailed guide on selecting the right PAV for your project, see Buy Used PAVs: Push Around Verticals, Quality Low-Level Access Platforms for Sale in the UK.

    MEWPs are not only faster and safer to operate but also more time-efficient, leading to better commercial cost-savings. The reduced setup time and quicker project execution mean lower labour costs, resulting in more efficient and profitable operations. These platforms also improve worker safety by minimising the risks associated with traditional access methods, contributing to fewer operational delays and smoother workflows ​(SDC Verifier) ​(Occupational Health and Safety Blog) ​(Conger Industries).

    Data Sources: Backed by trusted industry sources, the above information ensures accuracy and relevance. Visit the source links for further details.

    Yes, you do. MEWP operators should have attended a recognised operator training course and received a certificate, card or ‘licence’, listing the categories of MEWP the bearer is trained to operate. The certificate or card to operate a mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) is also known as a powered access licence (PAL) card.
