Platformers Days review

Germany’s specialist access and lifting event – Platformers Days - is over for another year. The show returned to its usual location in Hohenroda, rural central Germany last weekend and could not have asked for better weather. The sun shone and the atmosphere among both visitors and exhibitors was upbeat.

All of the exhibitors that we spoke to were encouraged by the number and quality of visitors and their optimistic outlook. The return to Hohenroda, the fantastic weather and the sense of being part of a family all played a part in this.

For a small show it more than compensates itself with the amount of machines it has on display


On display was a vast array of powered access equipment including products from several manufacturers, either making their German market debut or in some cases worldwide product launch.
