Need to meet environmental regulations? Hire our eco-friendly cranes - 04 Oct 2024

Need to meet environmental regulations? Hire our eco-friendly cranes.

The construction sector has been undergoing a significant transformation over the past 20 years. In particular, more companies are using sustainable alternatives for their operations. Here at Lift Minicranes we can help you choose greener solutions, in particular with a shift from diesel-powered cranes to electric designs.

Exploring the eco-friendly benefits of electric cranes.

We all want to reduce the amount of fossil fuels being used. With electric cranes, you don’t have to worry about the fumes associated with diesel or petrol cranes.

Our cranes are ideal for companies looking to lower their carbon footprint. They can also help you comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations, especially in cities like London.

Reduce levels of noise pollution.

Traditional cranes, particularly those powered by diesel engines, are not only bad for the environment; they’re notorious for their loud, intrusive noises.

Our electric cranes, in contrast, operate quietly. This makes them ideal for places where noise levels are restricted. By hiring our electric cranes, you contribute to a quieter workspace, which can significantly improve the comfort of workers and local community relations.

Help contribute towards cleaner air.

For indoor projects, such as construction within warehouses or renovation in urban areas, maintaining air quality is essential.

Electric cranes are not just beneficial for the environment—they also offer multiple operational advantages that can boost the efficiency and overall success of your projects.

Electric cranes produce zero exhaust fumes, so air will be kept clean. This is crucial not only for the health and safety of workers but also for meeting regulatory standards on emissions and air quality in enclosed or high-density areas.

Lower your operating costs.

One of the biggest advantages of electric cranes is their lower running cost. Diesel or petrol prices fluctuate, so can make the price of your project unpredictable.

Electric cranes, on the other hand, use electricity, which is generally more cost-effective, especially when projects are run over an extended period. Our electric motors have fewer moving parts, so maintenance costs are lower compared to diesel engines.

Greater precision in your operations.

Did you know that electric motors allow for smoother starts and stops? This is helpful for handling delicate loads or working in tight spaces. This precise control makes electric cranes a preferred choice for projects where accuracy is paramount, such as in infrastructure development or industrial maintenance.

Compact designs ideal for restricted spaces.

Many electric cranes, including mini cranes, are designed to be compact and highly manoeuvrable. This makes them ideal for sites with restricted space or for use in interior projects where a larger, bulkier crane won’t fit.

Their ease of manoeuvrability not only reduces setup times but also minimises potential disruption to surrounding activities.

Keeping everyone safe.

Safety is always a primary concern in the construction and industrial sectors. Electric cranes contribute to a safer work environment in several ways, including because they reduce the amount of heat produced.

Diesel engines generate substantial heat during operation. This can be problematic in confined environments or during hot weather. Electric cranes produce far less heat, helping to maintain a safer, more comfortable temperature on site. This is particularly beneficial for indoor projects or those in close quarters, where high temperatures could create hazardous working conditions.

Make the process much safer.

Since electric cranes don’t involve flammable fuel, they can reduce the risk of fire hazards. This makes them a safer option in environments where strict fire safety protocols are in place.
