Mediaco’s new XTJ 52

Head of sales Frédéric Codina said: “I have been working in the aerial work platforms business for about 15 years. Mediaco wanted to relaunch this activity with my arrival in the company. The choice of such an important model, the XTJ 52 is the highest spider lift currently on the market. I wanted a telescopic machine, of sure reliability, to be used mainly in the mobile telephone sector, which often has lines positioned in places of difficult access, such as hills with irregular or steep terrain, woods, etc.”
