What is the International Powered Access Federation?
IPAF is an internationally recognised organisation that promotes the safe and effective use of all powered access equipment. This not-for-profit organisation not only offers safety initiatives and training programs but is involved in influencing MEWP legislation and standards as well.
IPAF is owned and run by its members who consist of manufacturers, rental companies, distributors, contractors, and users. IPAF themselves don’t provide training courses, though by becoming a member of IPAF you can provide training to platform operators.
