Palfinger to present at Europlatform conference
26 August 2008
Palfinger has just acquired the Wumag aerial platform manufacturing business in Europe, and Mr Schneiderbauer will discuss the growth potential Palfinger sees in the truck mounted sector and opportunities for rental companies to place more emphasis on vehicle mounted platforms.
The theme of the conference is ‘The rental company of the future'. Co-organised by Access International and the International Powered Access Federation (IPAF), the conference will reveal new research into the European access rental market, consider the long-term potential for the business in Europe, and why it can benefit rental companies to become ‘ethical' players.
It will also address the latest thinking in fleet and rental management, including telematics/remote control systems, the latest trends in rental company financing and advice on managing rapid growth.
The conference is being sponsored by Haulotte Group (Gold Sponsor and Sponsor of the evening reception) and by Genie Industries (Silver Sponsor) and Skyjack (Silver Sponsor).
