Question 1

What are Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) and why are they essential for many UK industries?

Accepted Answer

Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) are crucial for providing safe and efficient access to elevated areas across a broad spectrum of industries. Whether it’s for construction, railway maintenance, or urban tree care, MEWPs, including boom lifts, spider lifts, and cherry pickers, play an indispensable role. These versatile platforms, such as Group A MEWPs, are designed for precise vertical access, with 3A and 3B classifications particularly suited for tasks requiring both vertical and horizontal reach, making them ideal for complex aerial lift operations.

For projects requiring mobility, truck-mounted and trailer-mounted MEWPs are perfect for large-scale outdoor tasks, while van-mounted and tracked MEWPs are more suited for specialised indoor operations or challenging terrains. To ensure safety, it’s vital to conduct a thorough risk assessment before beginning any work. Regular LOLER inspections are essential to maintain the safety and functionality of these platforms. At UK MEWPS Ltd, we prioritise the training and certification of operators, often through IPAF training, to ensure compliance with industry safety standards.

Our comprehensive range of MEWPs, including both new and used platform lifts, are listed in the the MEWPS Marketplace, and carefully selected to meet the specific needs of our clients. Whether you’re involved in industrial maintenance, retail facility management, or construction projects, our MEWPs are engineered to deliver outstanding performance in the most demanding environments. Additionally, our flexible MEWP hire and rental services offer tailored solutions for both short-term and long-term projects, making it easier for businesses to access the equipment they need when they need it.

From signage installation and cladding to roller door installation, painting, and decorating, MEWPs are integral to a wide range of applications. To operate these platforms safely and efficiently, following a detailed checklist and completing a MEWP course are critical steps that can help prevent accidents and ensure the smooth execution of your projects.

Question 2

What does MEWP stand for?

Accepted Answer

MEWP is an acronym for mobile elevated work platform. In the UK construction industry, MEWPs are used to access hard-to-reach places. Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWPs) are versatile, heavy-duty machines specially designed to safely lift workers, their tools and equipment to different heights. Lifting materials is achieved by use of MHA (Material Handling Attachments) specifically designed and approved for platform use. MEWPs provide flexibility and working at height accessibility needed to complete tasks safely, efficiently and cost-effectively when compared to other methods of work such as traditional scaffold access.

Question 3

What is an Aerial Work Platform?

Accepted Answer

An aerial work platform, also known as an aerial device, elevating work platform, aerial lift, cherry picker, trailer mounted boom, bucket truck or mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) is a mechanical device used to provide temporary access for people, tools equipment and materials to inaccessible areas, usually working at height. Sometimes MEWPS are used for 'negative reach' access - this is where the access required is below ground level, though is more rare. A good example is road bridge deck works, or dockside and jetty pier access.

Question 4

Is a MEWP the same as a Scissor Lift?

Accepted Answer

MEWPs, or mobile elevated working platforms, are powered access machines used in a huge range of construction, maintenance and warehousing sectors. Most popular MEWPs are available in two basic types: boom lift (known as cherry pickers) and vertical lifts (known as scissor lifts).

Question 5

Is a Telescopic Boom Lift a MEWP?

Accepted Answer

MEWPs (Mobile Elevating Work Platforms) themselves have many generic and interchangeable nicknames, such as aerials, aerial work platforms, access equipment, powered access, boom lifts or a generic “Genie lift”. A Telescopic or Articulated Boom Lifts is also sometimes simply referred to as a "cherry picker".
