Zeppelin fleet managerMartin Sebestyén added: “Skyjack supports us in operating successfully in the market and offering our customers solutions in the field of aerial work platforms that are precisely tailored to their requirements. The fact that a thousand machines have already found their way into our fleet within a short time speaks not only for the excellent cooperation, but also for the quality of the products. This allowed us to supplement our portfolio of working platforms with further electrically driven variants and thus offer our customers an even larger selection of sustainable alternatives. We look forward to continuing the successful partnership!"
