HYRAX enter UK market with Bradleys partnership

DUTCH aerial lift manufacturers HYRAX Industries have entered the UK market through the appointment of Bradleys Construction Ltd as their first authorized dealer.

Bradleys officially launched the HYRAX ATD 27.12 diesel-powered tracked boom lift at ScotPlant 2026 in Edinburgh, where the machine attracted strong interest from contractors and plant hire companies. The machine will also be exhibited at Hillhead 2026.

Among the first UK customers is Farmplus Constructions Ltd, whose purchase marks the first HYRAX machine to enter service in Britain.

The HYRAX ATD 27.12 offers a working height of 12.6m, a horizontal outreach of 8.75m and a platform capacity of 270kg. When combined with a lightweight trailer, the total towing weight remains below 3,500kg, allowing it to be transported by a standard pick-up or commercial van.

According to HYRAX, the machine has been designed to provide contractors with improved mobility between sites while maintaining the ability to work on difficult terrain and in confined locations.

Caspar van Woerden, owner of HYRAX Industries, said: ‘Entering the UK market is a milestone we have been working towards. Construction and rental companies here face the same challenges as our customers in the Netherlands, across Europe, the US and Canada – access to difficult terrain, tight sites and the need to move equipment efficiently between locations.

‘The HYRAX 27.12 was built for exactly that, and we look forward to growing alongside our UK partners.’
