New Irish Quality Standard for Blulift

Posted on 15th October 2014 in News

Blulift-Standard-Fin
Blulift recently introduced the Blulift Standard, a new Quality Mark used for quality control on all aspects of the business from Hire, Service, Training and Maintenance.

Speaking at the announcement of the Blulift Standard, John Cusack, Managing Director of Blulift outlined the introduction of the Standard was a result of the successful industry approach under its Be Wise at Height initiative. He explained:

‘the Be Wise at Height safety campaign made us more acutely aware of the many different variables that must be right to deliver a safe working environment at height. The development of the Blulift Standard is designed to assure our customers from the multinational company, council to tradesman that the entire Blulift process meets an industry standard. This applies across all business activity; from training to hire of powered access equipment.’

In developing its portfolio of specialist machinery equipment, Blulift has introduced a wide range of new options that include self drive access equipment under their UDrive brand to Blulift Spider Lifts and Trailer Lifts.

Blulift have also recently added a number of major investments in expanding its specialist stock including;

· Teupen Leo 30T, the only 30 metre Spider Lift in Ireland and renowned worldwide for its performance and productivity with both indoor and outdoor usage options;

· 3232 Electric Scissors Lift used for factory maintenance, pharmaceutical plants and data protection storage outlets. A further 20 Scissor Lifts have also just arrived on site to meet demand and for immediate usage across all sectors.

Blulift Case Study: Spiderlift 23m

Posted on 25th June 2014 in Case Study, News

boathouse_Timberline 2

Soft uneven ground, narrow pathways and a glass structure presented Timberline Ltd with a significant working at height challenge when restructuring a storm damaged boat house at Craggaunowen, Co. Clare earlier this year.

The specially constructed glass boathouse, reminiscent of a glacier, houses the original  ‘Brendan Boat’, a hide boat in which Tim Severin sailed from Ireland to the United States in 1976, re-enacting the Voyage of St. Brendan the Navigator, reputed to have discovered America centuries before Columbus. Timberline Ltd were contracted by Shannon Heritage, the owners of the site to repair the roof of the boathouse which suffered as a result of a fallen tree in the winter storms. Keeping in character with the natural surrounds of Craggaunowen ‘The Living Past Experience’ the boat house is located in an area of uneven sensitive ground with areas of marsh, rocky inclines and narrow access routes. In order to work effectively around these restrictions and repair the glass boathouse, Timberline hired the Blulift Spiderlift 23m.

Dave Brickenden of Timberline stated that ‘The Blulift Spiderlift 23m was of particular appeal to us in this incidence  taking into account the tight spaces to manoeuvre, the risk of ground damage and the stable platform with controlled precision offered by the Spiderlift 23m’   Available as an electrical power option with tracked chassis, Timberline could gently manoeuvre the machine to the complex surrounds of the site. With low ground bearing pressures and compact stowed dimensions the Blulift Spiderlift was delivered to the site location via narrow pathways and tight corners without restriction. Once erected, he Blulift Spiderlift 23m has a working height of 23m and an outreach of 12m.

Of particular interest for Timberline was the proportional electro-hydraulic controls in the basket with 90° rotation and a lift capacity of 200kg. This capability meant that Timberline contractors could operate on a dual basis with 1 operating controls and the other focused on the repair work.

Timberline underwent specialised training prior to hiring the Blulift Spiderlift with onsite service and support as necessary.

Blulift Sponsored Event Ready to Lift Off

Posted on 6th August 2013 in News

Cyclists and runners of all abilities have a chance to take to the moon and back in Kilkee in a major new fundraising cycle and run walk event.   The inaugural Ian’s Trust Moon and Back fundraiser takes place in Kilkee on Saturday 10th August and will include 120km and 55km cycles with a 10km run and walk event also taking place.   The Ian’s Trust registered charity was established in the memory of Ian ‘Bean’ Cusack of Clarina and provides financial support for families who require treatment and supports for their children with acquired brain injury.

Speaking at the announcement of the event Oorla Cusack explained the significance of the August event and the background to the charity.  She outlined ‘we decided to establish the charity in the memory of our youngest son Ian and create an annual event that gives people the opportunity to take part in a special day that will help so many families.  Currently in Ireland there is very limited support structures for children under 16 suffering from Acquired Brain Injury.  We aim to provide some level of support to families who need to access additional treatments and equipment and help improve the quality of life of their children’.

Oorla added ‘the inaugural Moon and Back event is of additional significance as August will mark the first anniversary of Ian ‘Bean’.  We hope we can grow it annually and make a real difference to those families.  The option of having different cycle routes or walking, running is so we can encourage as many people as possible to take part.  The backdrop of Kilkee and Loop Head is the perfect setting and was one of Ian’s favourite places.’

Entry to the cycle event is €25 while the run and walk costs €20 to register.  Each participant will receive a running technical t-shirt, refreshments on the routes and a Post event BBQ.   Champion cyclist Nicloas Roche has donated a signed jersey that will be raffled among all participants.

The 120km and 55km cycles start at the Kilkee Bay Hotel at 12pm while the run / walk starts from the bandstand at the West End also at 12pm. Registration and sign on for the both is from  10.30am to 11:45 at the Kilkee Bay Hotel.

National Seminar Identifies Key Training Gaps

Posted on 17th June 2013 in News

The lack of awareness of legislative changes and variances in basic operator training were among the key themes to emerge from the recent Be Wise at Height national seminar.  The event hosted by Blulift identified a number of common areas of concern among safety managers from a variety of industries. The misinterpretation of current legislation was the key issue identified.  The seminar included discussions with representatives of the Health & Safety Authority and has prompted the development of a further series of information events to address the key issues identified at the recent event.

The key issues discussed at the event included the misuse of access equipment, lack of awareness of options such as accessories and attachments to work safely at height and the increasing lack of machine maintenance of equipment due to budget cuts. Attendees from utility companies to development and manufacturing plant management companies identified the need to develop thorough training structures in machine examinations.  Larger companies identified this as a key gap.

Blulift announced that they have now adopted their 2013 Be Wise at Height campaign as a permanent training and industry safety programme with two further safety information seminars now organised for this Autumn and Winter.  A regional seminar will be hosted in September with the theme of Operator Training and Machine Familiarisation. A second event in December will focus on Safety Harnesses and Lanyards.  The events will again be organised in conjunction with the Health and Safety Authority and industry experts.

Pat Brown, Safety and Training Manager with Blulift explained the feedback from the national seminar provided the basis for deciding to provide more industry information through regional events. He outlined ‘it was striking the level of misinterpretation of current legislation among companies of all sizes.  The decision to host two more events in 2013 is a response to a very definite need for information among safety and facility managers and are designed based on immediate feedback from attendees.  We are delighted to have the Health and Safety Authority involved again who also found it very beneficial from a direct feedback point of view.  The key learning from the day was the majority of companies are not fully up to speed with legislation and need to pay more attention to the thoroughness of machine inspections.’

There is no charge for the autumn and winter events but places are limited to 40 and most be pre-booked through Blulift on 1890 500 900.

The flexibility of the UDrive allowed us to cover a number of jobs in one day across a number of sites using just one staff member to drive and operate the machine so is far more cost effective for ourselves and the customer.  You will see a lot more usage of this type of equipment for those reasons alone

Trailer Lift

Posted on 1st September 2011 in Frontpage Comments

A number of neighbours shared the cost of a trailer lift to tackle some common area jobs at height in the estate.  We just arrived at Blulift, drove it away and had the jobs done in an afternoon. Small amount of training to operate it. The safety of the trailer lift alone is worth it for jobs on houses, roofs, trees
