IXOLIFT and Leader Group set a new benchmark for workplace safety and efficiency with Europe’s first fully electric, self-propelled personnel lifter
Bologna, 10 June 2025 – A groundbreaking collaboration between leading companies in Finland and Italy has resulted in the launch of the IXOLIFT X510 family, two fully electric work platforms designed to elevate workplace safety across industries.
By combining Finland’s precision engineering with Italy’s manufacturing excellence, this partnership optimizes the supply chain, ensuring faster delivery and greater accessibility for businesses across Europe. Working with a more concentrated network of suppliers fosters stronger relationships and collaboration, enabling smoother operations. This strategic approach helps navigate challenges, avoid import-export tariffs, and shorten delivery times, ultimately benefiting end users worldwide with quicker access to innovative solutions.
The IXOLIFT X510 PRO and X510 set a new benchmark for personnel lifters, incorporating state-of-the-art technology and user-friendly features that prioritise productivity and safety.
Designed for seamless operation
Designed for seamless operation, these platforms offer:
- Peace of Mind – Certified to meet European safety standards (EN-280) and international safety regulations, providing unmatched reliability.
- Oil-Free, Maintenance-Free Safety – Without the need for the conventional hydraulic system (used in traditional products), oil spills are completely eliminated, reducing maintenance and ensuring a cleaner, hazard-free experience.
- Compact Size & Versatile Application – Designed to fit into tight spaces, including passenger elevators and vans, making it ideal for commercial buildings, retail stores, hospitals, convention centres, and warehouses.
- Intuitive Use – Featuring the IXO control panel, both models ensure simple and efficient operation with a clear battery level indicator
- Full Flexibility – Effortless manoeuvrability in both self-propelled or manual modes. An advanced interlock system ensures smooth transitions between lifting and push-around modes.
“IXOLIFT has worked closely with our value chain to understand the evolving needs of users, we’re proud to introduce a fully electric, self-charging, and maintenance-free personnel lifter that’s eco-friendly, easy to use, and built to last,” said Johan Friis, CEO of IXOLIFT.
With zero hydraulic oil and energy-efficient operation, the X510 supports companies in meeting their sustainability and ESG targets. While both models share this eco-conscious design, the key difference lies in battery life: the X510 powers through two full workdays, while the X510 PRO extends performance by an additional day—ideal for more demanding schedules.
“We are delighted to be introducing this new product in Italy to our wide array of customers in inventory management, service maintenance, building management, food production, pharmaceutical, construction and many other sectors. No matter what their industry is, we are committed to helping our customers eliminate injuries due to falls from low elevation at the workplace,” said Sandrino Ferrarini, Managing Director of Leader Group.
The IXOLIFT X510 PRO and X510 represent the future of safe, sustainable, and efficient workplace solutions. Experience the power of innovation, now available through a shortened, optimized supply chain thanks to world-class collaboration between Finland and Italy. As proud innovators within the European Union, we are flying the EU flag high—championing quality, sustainability, and cutting-edge technology to build a safer and more efficient future for all.
Personnel lifters are also called mobile elevating work platforms (MEWP), driveable lifts or self-propelled platforms.
