Niftylift Wins HAE Supplier of the Year 2026

Three years running. Eight wins total. A proud night for Team Niftylift.

Niftylift is proud to announce that it has been named Supplier of the Year at the 2026 Hire Awards of Excellence, hosted by Hire Association Europe (HAE).

The award, presented at a gala evening at Grosvenor House, London, recognises outstanding achievement across the hire industry and celebrates companies that demonstrate excellence in innovation, service and overall business performance.

A Winning Streak

This latest success marks Niftylift’s third consecutive Supplier of the Year win and the eighth time overall that the company has received this prestigious industry accolade.

It is a significant milestone that reflects the continued strength of Niftylift’s product offering, its commitment to customer support, and the dedication of its people across all areas of the business.

Recognising Innovation

In addition to winning Supplier of the Year, Niftylift was also recognised in the Hire Industry Product of the Year category, where its new HR12N MK3 was Highly Commended by the judges.

The HR12N represents the next generation of Niftylift’s narrow electric boom platforms, combining compact dimensions with a highly efficient all-electric drive system and an optional Diesel-Electric configuration for extended runtime.

With a 225kg safe working load and enhanced operational flexibility, the Mark 3 has been developed to meet the evolving needs of rental companies and end users, offering increased productivity without compromising its low-weight design.
