For internationally operating companies, hiring work platforms is often a very complex matter. Apart from language barriers, each country has its own cultural peculiarities and its own regulations and safety requirements in business terms. This is where Riwal International Rental (RIR) comes in. The RIR team is based at the headquarters in Dordrecht and takes care of the provision of required platforms in practically every country in the world - even if a customer wants to use platforms in different countries at the same time. Riwal aerial work platforms are used for a wide variety of tasks, such as the installation of racking systems in new logistics centers or for maintenance work and stocktaking in existing warehouses.

Riwal naturally relies on its own global network of branches as well as on partner companies. In addition to advice in advance of the rental, the scope of services includes transportation and provision of the platforms at the site as well as a 24-hour technical service on site. Track & Trace solutions are even offered to ensure that the equipment always remains on the construction site and is only operated by authorized users.

RIR has access to the Riwal Group's global rental fleet. The company operates 67 depots in 16 countries with a total of around 15,000 machines. These include around 150 special machines for unusual applications, such as electric telescopic platforms with large lifting heights or very maneuverable, extra-narrow scissor lifts. Riwal also provides such special machines worldwide on request. as
