Sharon Foong, Genie General Manager for Southeast Asia, Terex AWP, added, ?The launch of this new scissor lift comes at an opportune time when Asia is going through rapid economic growth, like that in Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia. Low cost of ownership is an important consideration for our customers in these markets. This model caters to the growing need for versatile machines. It is perfectly suited for indoor workspaces such as warehouse aisles, high reach needed for electrical installation and facilities maintenance tasks. At the same time, it measures up for demanding tilt-up and heavy-duty construction jobsites.?
