HR22 SE Wins Product of the Year at the IAPAs 2025!
We are delighted to announce that the Niftylift HR22SE has been awarded Product of the Year - Self Propelled Booms & Atrium Lifts at the 2025 International Awards for Powered Access (IAPAs), organised by IPAF and KHL. This prestigious accolade recognises the most innovative and game-changing products in the access industry, and we are honoured to have our all-electric HR22SE stand out among such strong competition.

A Testament to Innovation and Sustainability
The HR22SE represents a significant leap forward in sustainable powered access solutions. As the world’s lightest 22m all-electric stick boom, it delivers an unrivalled combination of compact dimensions, market-leading outreach, and zero-emissions operation. This makes it an ideal solution for environmentally conscious job sites, urban projects, and indoor applications where noise and emissions must be minimised.
-
Zero emissions – Fully electric drive for clean and quiet operation.
-
Ultra-compact design – Tail swing of just 0.55m, making it the most manoeuvrable in its class.
-
Low weight (9,980kg) – 26% lighter than its closest competitor, reducing transport costs and environmental impact.
-
Industry-leading outreach – An 18.8m horizontal reach, providing 11% more outreach than the market average.
-
Advanced battery technology – Maintenance-free AGM batteries with built-in monitoring and protection.

The HR22SE was engineered to set a new benchmark in the 22m stick boom category. Compared to diesel and electric alternatives from leading competitors, it delivers superior efficiency, reduced tail swing, and best-in-class outreach, all while being the most transportable machine in its class.
-
Shortest transport length (7.2m) reduces logistics complexity.
-
30% gradeability ensures outstanding performance across varied terrains.
-
Spacious 2.4m x 0.9m platform with 280kg SWL accommodates up to three operators.
