  • Certified Safety

    Certified Safety

    Safety is always our first concern when designing and manufacturing our ML2, ML3 and ML4 lifts. All are built in compliance with existing norms, as well as tested and certified by internationally recognized agencies, such as TÜV Nord-Baumuster geprüft and Theateringenieur – BGV C1.  For most countries where our products are exported, the existing certifications are normally more than sufficient. If additional certifications are necessary in specific countries, we take great care in securing them before offering them on the market.  You can rest assured that when you buy any lift from our range, in whatever country you may live, it meets the necessary norms and holds the required certifications for delivering extreme safety.  ML2, ML3 and ML4 - Certifications and norm compliance:   TUV NORD CERTIFIED = Assures the lift meets the requirements for structures, i.e. when the load is lifted and secured at trim height, the lifting equipment then becomes a structure and different regulations apply to the lifting operation.  5° test = A load testing requirement taken from DIN 56950 (safety requirements and inspections for stands and truss lifts of stands)  DGUV-17 = German accident prevention regulation applies to employers and insured persons in Germany, as well as employers and employees from foreign enterprises who perform work in Germany.  CE = Self-certified conformity declaration

    The 2020 edition of Rigger’s Voice turned its ear to voices from the North, as extremely experienced riggers and production professionals from Scandinavia travelled to Area Four Industries Headquarters in Roudnice nad Labem, Czech Republic for this annual, elite conference.  Coming from Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark, attendees took part in high-level rigging and support structure discussions that were led by Area Four Industries Technical Director Norbert Tripp from 11th – 12th February. Many questions were asked, various rigging, truss and support structure discussions held, and even truss stress tests conducted during the two jam packed days. Participants were also treated to a grand tour of the MILOS factory.  Ideas and recommendations from these experienced professionals, for helping steer future product development by Area Four Industries brands, were also provided during the conference. This information is highly valued by each brand and is an important part of every Rigger’s Voice.  The two full days of the Rigger’s Voice conference were separated by a fun and exciting evening in the capital city of Prague. Attendees enjoyed a scenic boat ride on the Vltava River, which features fantastic views of the historic city, with dinner and drinks at a traditional Czech restaurant.  After two days of diving deep into the rigging and support structure pool of knowledge, attendees went back to their respective countries with newfound information to share with their company and colleagues, thereby helping to increase the level of safety in our industry.  Contact us today at info@areafourindustries.comif you’re an experienced rigger or production professional that would like to join the 2021 edition of Rigger’s Voice.Click here to see the video from Rigger´s Voice.  www.areafourindustries.com

  • Lifting safety & durability to new heights

    Lifting safety & durability to new heights

    Safety is always our first concern when designing and manufacturing our ML2, ML3 and ML4 lifts. All are built in compliance with existing norms, as well as tested and certified by internationally recognized agencies, such as TÜV Nord-Baumuster geprüft and Theateringenieur – BGV C1. For most countries where our products are exported, the existing certifications are normally more than sufficient. If additional certifications are necessary in specific countries, we take great care in securing them before offering them on the market. You can rest assured that when you buy any lift from our range, in whatever country you may live, it meets the necessary norms and holds the required certifications for delivering extreme safety. ML2, ML3 and ML4 - Certifications and norm compliance: TUV NORD CERTIFIED = Assures the lift meets the requirements for structures, i.e. when the load is lifted and secured at trim height, the lifting equipment then becomes a structure and different regulations apply to the lifting operation.5° test = A load testing requirement taken from DIN 56950 (safety requirements and inspections for stands and truss lifts of stands)DGUV-17 = German accident prevention regulation applies to employers and insured persons in Germany, as well as employers and employees from foreign enterprises who perform work in Germany.CE = Self-certified conformity declaration TÜV and BGV C1 certified telescopic lifts with industry-leading durability, top levels of safety and unmatched user-friendliness.   ML2-5520Load 200 KgMax. height: 5,5mMin. height: 1,7mHeight indicatorTelescopic outriggers increase practicality and improve stabilityRubber feet on the outriggers protect all surfaces from damage and provide increased frictionTop mast safety attachment points   ML2-6520Load 200 KgMaximum height: 6,5mMinimum height: 1,8mHeight indicatorIntegrated wheels with brakes and a bubble levelRubber feet on the outriggers protect all surfaces from damage and provide increased frictionTop mast safety attachment point Easy to load line array with double security for maximum safety and protection.ML3-5626Load 260 kg Max.Height 5.6 m Min.Height 1.78 mOutrigger rubber pads PLS (Pin Locking System)The only TÜV certified multi-purpose lift that packs 270 kg of load capacity into 6.5 m.ML4-6527Min.
