Our STEIGER ® T 540 has just received the Product of the Year Award at the 2013 International Awards for Powered Access (IAPA) ceremony!
We have now won this prestigious award two years in a row. Our STEIGER ® T 330 won in 2012.
The 2013 IAPA award ceremony was held at the Hilton Hotel in Miami, USA on the 26th of March. More than 350 industry professionals from around the world were in attendance.
The most distinguishing feature of our T 540 is the long upper boom with its movable jib (RÜSSEL ®). The T 540 offers far greater reach and performance capabilities than any other machine in this class. When working at a 50 m elevation, the innovative design and technology of this STEIGER ® model provide operators with an incredible 5.7 m of additional lateral reach compared to other truck-mounted aerial work platforms in this category. This opens up entirely new dimensions in height-access technology.
The STEIGER ® T 540 is the second model in our new HEIGHT performance series. The incredible and previously-unimaginable sales success we enjoy today confirms that we have scored a direct hit with our HEIGHT performance series.
