February 2009’s issue of the “Information for Workers and Safety (IWSH)” newsletter cited that 40% of workplace deaths in 2007 were from falls from height (including ladders). Similarly, OSHA’s most frequent standard citations involve ladders, fall protection and scaffolding (U.S Department of Labour Occupational Safety and Health Administration). Clearly, workplace safety is vital and should not be dealt with lightly. The benefits of working safely at heights include increased productivity and keeping safety costs down. It only takes one accident to cause a pile up of extra work and fines.

If you are a facility manager, maintenance personnel, contractors or even a company looking to provide the most advanced industrial equipments to your customers, how can you work smarter to increasing productivity & safety? Want to know how you can work at height of 14 feet, hands free, with the ability to move 360 degrees – all while having instant access to your tools and materials?

  • When working at height, i want Increased Productivity & Safety?
  • When working at height, i want Portability?
  • When working at height, i want Efficiency?
  • When working at height, i want Affordability?

If you answered yes to any of them, you should consider the LiftPodTM.

About the JLG LiftPodTM
The JLG LiftPod  portable aerial work platform combines the portability of a ladder with the freedom, stability and functionality of a work platform. It is the first-of-its-kind personal and portable lift now available at Galmon (Singapore).

According to JLG’s press release (JLG to Give Away a LiftPod at IFMA World Workplace 2008, 1 October 2008), the LiftPod has an enclosed platform and 14-foot working height, provides greater stability than ladders and allows workers to move hands-free within the basket, helping to increase safety. The platform contains a work tray to carry tools and materials, increasing productivity and quality of work.
The LiftPod is easily portable between sites in a pickup truck or SUV and around the work site on wheels. Each module of the LiftPod weighs about 50 pounds for simple disassembly and transfer, with a total weight of only 155 pounds. The LiftPod can be carried and moved by one person, and assembled in less than 30 seconds.
