When all 40 plus units of this order are delivered it will take the young company’s fleet up to 180 machines, with plans to increase it to 200 units by the end of 2011, assuming demand continues to grow. At the same time I UP has applied to become an IPAF training centre, which it says will make it the only one in Sheffield.

Finally as if all this is not enough, it has opened an alloy scaffold tower division. The tower system that it has selected to stock is the new Turner Access tower with Beta-guard advanced guardrail system. Please register to see all images
