The P280 is a go-to for building upkeep and inspection roles. Its simplicity makes it ideal for regular tasks like window cleaning on offices or apartments, where operators can swiftly cover wide facades using the two-person basket (250kg capacity). The stable basket allows workers to clean or repair at height with confidence, improving productivity on routine jobs.
Professional surveyors and maintenance engineers also value this platform for mid-level inspections. The P280’s combination of reach and small footprint means it can be brought into sites with limited access (e.g. narrow driveways or busy city centres) to examine building exteriors or install equipment. Notably, this model is housed on a van chassis, enabling entry into gated courtyards or weight-restricted grounds that larger trucks cannot reach. It’s a versatile tool across property management and light construction tasks.
