Rapid Access has launched the first mobile app for aerial work platforms in the Middle East region.

Rapid Access, part of the UK-based Lavendon Group, operates a fleet of 4000 machines from nine depots in all six GCC countries.

Designed with the sleek and unique features of the website launched last year, says the company, the app is being launched in six versions, one for each country.

Alexis Potter, sales and marketing director of Rapid Access, said the app supports the region’s developing health and safety culture and the subsequent growing demand for aerial work platforms.

“Our app features a unique platform selector which in four easy steps helps users to select the right aerial work platform for their application. It also provides a range of information on our bespoke health and safety innovations, training courses, and our depots across the region.”

Mr Potter added, “Our customers require on demand access to our services and often have to work on the move and within challenging deadlines. We believe this app will improve connectivity between Rapid and our customer base and in doing so improve their ability to deliver safe working at height solutions”.
