What Are Aerial Work Platforms?

Aerial Work Platforms are machines designed to lift workers, tools, and materials safely to height. People also call them:

  • Boom lifts

     

  • Scissor lifts

     

  • Man lifts

     

  • MEWP (Mobile Elevated Work Platforms)

     

These machines provide controlled vertical and horizontal access. As a result, they replace ladders, scaffolding, and unsafe climbing methods.

Why Aerial Work Platforms Matter in 2026

Work-at-height rules grow stricter every year. Safety audits increase. Therefore, Aerial Work Platforms become the safest option.

Key reasons:

  • They reduce fall risk

  • They improve worker productivity

  • They allow faster job completion

  • They meet global safety norms

  • They reduce insurance liabilities

Consequently, companies prefer AWP over traditional access systems.
