A new name in UK access

The team at Bravi UK is introducing a new name to the access industry - HLS - Height Lift & Shift - to better reflect its growing product line and distributorships.

The two companies are both part of Aerial Investments, which issued a formal announcement saying that the move is not only due to the expanded range of companies that it represents, which now includes Bluelift, RAM and PB Lifttechnik as well as Bravi of course, but it is also intended to help maintain its independence, and ability to offer clients truly impartial advice.

The statement added: “Dealing with both trade and end user clients the HLS team specialises in looking at every aspect of the client’s requirements to build a full picture and recommend the best solution for each specific activity, environment, and budget.”

“This open-minded and individualistic approach is fundamental to the philosophy behind HLS – to improve safety and productivity, while simultaneously reducing costs for anyone who has a need to work at height, or in materials handling.”

“The formation of HLS will enable the Aerial Investments Group to give equal billing to all of the brands we represent, and to concentrate unequivocally on clients who need expert advice, fleet management, equipment, and associated services within the working at height and materials handling environment.”

All current Bravi UK products will now be available through HLS - Bluelift spider lifts, Ram truck mounted lifts and PB scissors and booms. The company will also continue to offer used equipment, training, service and parts, and it says that it will be adding further new products to its portfolio in the coming months.

The two senior managers in the business - Andrew Fishburn and Stuart Honeywood are majority shareholders in all three companies. The official launch of HLS will take place at Vertikal Days next week, where the company will exhibit the full range of products from the suppliers it now represents.
