Blade Access recently supported a major roofing project in Bradford using one of our Ruthmann T480 Truck Mounted Platform, providing safe and efficient high-level access within a carefully managed exclusion zone.

With a working height of 48 metres and an impressive outreach capability, the Ruthmann T480 is ideally suited for roofing works on large or complex structures. Its precision controls and articulated boom design enable accurate positioning, even in challenging environments or tight urban spaces.

The roofing project required consistent, elevated access to multiple sections of the structure. The T480’s large work basket, with a safe working load of 600kg, allowed multiple operatives to work simultaneously with tools and materials, improving productivity and reducing downtime.

As always, safety remained paramount, with a secure exclusion zone in place to protect both site personnel and the public throughout the operation.

Truck Mounted Platforms like the Ruthmann T480 continue to be the go-to solution for rapid, flexible, and safe access at height across roofing, construction, and maintenance projects in the UK.

Supported by a national network and dedicated local teams, Blade Access provides tailored, responsive solutions across the UK, ensuring that client expectations are consistently met and exceeded.
