Dutch access platform manufacturer produces demolition-specific scissor lift.
Imagine the contractor/manufacturer meeting that led to the creation of what we believe to be the world’s first demolition-specification Mobile Elevating Work Platform:
Contractor: Hi, I need a scissor lift.
Manufacturer: Well you came to the right place Sir. Were you looking for anything in particular?
Contractor: Well, I work in demolition so it’s got to be tough, durable and rugged
Manufacturer: Not a problem. Anything else?
Contractor: I want it on tracks, there’s a lot of rubble you see. And I want it made from heavy-duty steel.
Manufacturer: Tracks, heavy-duty steel. OK?
Contractor: Did I mention the tough, durable and rugged?
Manufacturer: Yep. Tough, durable and rugged. All noted. That’s a rough ol’ business you demolition guys work in huh?
Contractor: Damn right. Rough and tough. It’s a man’s world, and no mistake.
Manufacturer: Did you have a colour scheme in mind at all?
Contractor: Yeah, I want it pink. And not just any pink either. I want it “Lady Penelope Pink”
Manufacturer: Am I on Candid Camera?
