The EURO 6 exhaust emission standard (for trucks weighing 7.49 tonnes and more) which is in force within the European Union since the start of 2014, led to a dramatic increase in the weight of carrier vehicles of up to 180 kg in some cases. The goal of the platform industry was thus clearly spelled out: whatever became heavier in the trucks had to be slimmed down in the platform attachments in order to achieve an equal weight result. The development department at Palfinger Platforms faced up to this extremely difficult task and has drawn attention to itself with some astonishing innovative results. The former WT 230 and WT 300 have been thoroughly re-designed. This gave rise to the P 230 and P 300 truck access platforms, which have been included under the heading of the new Premium class.

With regard to the P 300, further carrier vehicle models such as Mercedes are now available in addition to the well-known MAN. The pole position achieved in lateral outreach was improved once again here as well. Given a basket load of 100 kg, an outreach of 21 m can be achieved, despite a considerably lighter structure. The need for a new profile concept resulted in such a dramatic weight reduction that this truck access platform can also handle a heavier load. This means that necessary tools and equipment no longer have to be brought to the place of use separately from the platform.
