Bulky drywall panels, washbasins for bathrooms and kitchens, and pallets laden with bricks weighing several tonnes – all these materials were transported safely, cleanly and almost effortlessly floor by floor up to the fifth storey during the construction phase. In the final phase of the new building in Passau city centre, the GEDA 1500 Z/ZP transport platform proved to be an indispensable aid.

During the shell construction phase, the contractor opted for height access equipment from GEDA. Thanks to the longstanding partnership with the Beutlhauser Group, planning, delivery and installation could be carried out from a single source. The expertise of the GEDA partner was particularly evident during installation: due to the inner-city construction site situation, an existing scaffolding had to be bridged. In order to secure the hoist safely, the mast brackets were anchored directly into the concrete wall. Three-metre-long scaffolding poles were used for this purpose, ensuring a stable and reliable connection. Despite these challenging conditions, the entire installation was completed within a single day.

Although a domestic hoist is installed in the building, it cannot replace the performance of a transport platform. With a load capacity of up to 2,000 kg and a spacious BS platform measuring 1.45 m x 3.30 m, the GEDA 1500 Z/ZP is ideal for transporting heavy and bulky materials. At the same time, the device is not only designed for transporting materials, but is also approved for the safe transport of people. This hoist can operate at a lifting height of up to 100 metres. The GEDA 1500 Z/ZP supported the construction work over a period of nine months.

The GEDA 1500 Z/ZP has two separate control systems and can be used both as a material hoist and as a transport platform for people and materials. In transport platform mode, the device reaches a speed of 12 m/min, while in material hoist mode a lifting speed of 24 m/min is possible.

One device – numerous applications: thanks to the 14 different platform variants with different load capacities and platform dimensions, the double-mast transport platform can be flexibly adapted to almost any construction site situation. The spacious load platforms offer sufficient space – even for particularly heavy and bulky building materials. The proven GEDA UNI-X-MAST system guarantees stable and smooth handling even at high load capacities.
