We have decided to adopt IPAF Terms and Conditions of hire to all new hire contracts.

We had previously used CPA Terms with regards to our customer agreements. However, as a long-standing member of IPAF, the switch terms consistently with all other access rental suppliers seemed overdue.

The difference between IPAF and CPA is not massive. Though in some respects very relevant.

The CPA focus is for plant generally and more specifically operated plant hire. Where the hire company charges by the hour and provides the driver or operator, for instance earth moving projects etc.

In this case the liability for the hirer to indemnify the owner and operator of plant is clear.

Whereas IPAF relates mostly to MEWPS and other none operated plant. 95% of our fleet is made up of mobile elevating work platforms.  

We note most of our competitors already have adopted IPAF Terms & Conditions.

Our customer needs are well covered and protected by IPAF Terms and as stated these are tailored to none operated equipment in the main working on any site.

Please return a signed copy of said terms for or file.

None return of the document will be deemed as accepted as and when you grace us with any future order.
