Aerial work platform trucks, also known as AWP trucks, are specialized heavy equipment vehicles used for temporary elevated work at heights. They allow elevated access for various applications such as maintenance, construction and repair activities at heights varying from a few meters to over 50 meters. Some key features of AWP trucks include boom or scissor lifts, cradles or platforms for workers, controls to operate movement and vertical lifting from the ground level or platform. They offer significant advantages over traditional means of access such as ladders by providing stable and safe working platforms at heights along with functions to move horizontally and vertically as per the task requirements. The growing construction industry and infrastructure development activities have been driving the demand for AWP trucks.
Market key trends:
Electric AWP trucks are gaining rapid popularity due to various benefits they offer over conventional diesel variants. They are zero emission, do not produce noise pollution and have lower fuel and maintenance costs over the lifetime. Many leading manufacturers have introduced innovative electric truck models with longer run times on a single charge and boosted productivity features. Regulatory push for emission reduction and automation is further propelling the electric AWP market. Intensifying construction of green buildings, renewable energy infrastructure and focus on worksite safety are some of the key trends fueling growth of the global aerial work platform trucks market.
