AVL's Philipp de Nardi, with Haulotte Germany's David Ertl and Katharina von Henning

AVL Arbeitsbühnenvermietung has expanded its rental equipment fleet with a brand-new SIGMA 16 PRO articulating boom. With the arrival of the equipment, the German rental company, based in Ludwigsfelde, has become one of the first to offer Haulotte's latest electric boom in the Berlin area. AVL already owns Haulotte aerial lifts in its fleet. By ordering the SIGMA 16 PRO electric articulating boom, the company intends to remain at the forefront of technology. SIGMA 16 PRO is designed to efficiently carry out daily tasks up to 16 m high. It claims the best outreach on the market, combined with the highest up and over clearance. SIGMA 16 PRO can be used both indoors and outdoors on any type of stabilised surface and carries a load of up to 230 kg and two operators without envelope restrictions for maximum efficiency. The tight turning radius and proportional controls ensure an optimal agility. David Ertl, sales manager at Haulotte Germany, says: "AVL has been convinced by the versatility and productivity of the machine, which integrates a horizontally rotating jib to access working areas that were previously inaccessible. It also embeds Haulotte's exclusive innovations and high-quality standards. I am sure our new SIGMA 16 PRO will captivate them and they will want to add more to their fleet." AVL has a partner network through which it rents and sells work platforms throughout Germany and the neighbouring Czech Republic and Poland.
