Horizon Platforms Blog

At Horizon Platforms, we have extensive knowledge of the warehousing industry and racking installation settings, as well as a specific nationwide fleet of powered access platforms that are perfect for any project within the warehousing environment. 

Large logistic companies expect their employees and workers within their supply chain to prioritise risk management and ensure they are compliant with health and safety regulations – something we pride ourselves on. This gives our customers peace of mind and is just one of the many reasons we are a go-to for MEWP hire within the racking industry.

Safety is paramount when working at height, so getting up to speed on the latest IPAF training from industry experts is vital.

Working indoors in cold store and food distribution industries, an electric boom or scissor lift can be essential for stock taking, planned or emergency maintenance, and racking. However, sub-zero temperatures can limit your machine’s capability.
