Palmer & Co with their new RUTHMANN T 570 HF

Palmer & Co, one of Scotland’s most respected access and window cleaning specialists, has expanded its high-reach capabilities with the addition of a RUTHMANN T570 HF truck mounted platform, supplied by Versalift UK.

The new machine marks another milestone in Palmer & Co’s growth, giving the company the ability to tackle challenging projects with unmatched height, outreach, and load capacity.

About Palmer & Co – Scotland’s High-Reach Specialists

Founded in 1932 in Glasgow, Palmer & Co has a proud history in the window cleaning sector. Since 2015, the company has diversified into MEWP hire and truck mounted platform rental, growing a versatile fleet capable of reaching up to 70 metres.

With a client base spanning commercial, industrial, and specialist projects, Palmer & Co prides itself on combining safe working at height with operational efficiency.

The Challenge

As demand for complex, high-elevation projects increased, Palmer & Co required a truck mounted MEWP that could deliver:

  • Exceptional working height and horizontal outreach
  • High platform capacity for heavier loads
  • Smooth, precise operation for complex site requirements

The goal was clear: find a solution that could expand the company’s capabilities and strengthen its competitive edge.

The Solution

In July 2025, Palmer & Co took delivery of a 57-metre RUTHMANN T 570 HF—their second RUTHMANN in just one year, following a 33 m T 330 XS earlier in the year.

Key Features of the RUTHMANN T 570 HF

  • 57 m working height and 41 m outreach
    600 kg maximum platform capacity
  • Advanced HighFlex boom design for precision manoeuvres
  • Mounted on a 26-tonne, 3-axle chassis for stability
  • Automatic setup and retraction for faster, safer operations

This truck mounted platform is part of RUTHMANN’s HighFlex generation, engineered for maximum productivity, versatility, and operator comfort.

“We’ve reached another major milestone and we’re just getting started. The powerful 57 metre Ruthmann is the latest and most advanced addition to our growing fleet. This high performance machine is engineered to tackle the most demanding, high reach projects with unmatched precision, outreach, and height capability.”
