WAREGEM, BELGIUM – TVH, a global leader in parts for industrial, construction, and agricultural equipment, is proud to announce a new exclusive partnership with Aresta, a premier specialist in fall protection systems. This strategic collaboration reinforces TVH’s commitment to being a one-stop shop by providing customers with direct access to top-tier safety gear alongside their essential machine parts.

The partnership specifically targets the needs of those operating Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs). By integrating Aresta’s comprehensive range of harnesses, lanyards, and safety kits into its global inventory, TVH ensures that safety is never an option but a guaranteed necessity for every operator.

Key Highlights of the Partnership:

  • Exclusive Distribution: TVH serves as the exclusive MEWP distributor for Aresta products across the EMEA region (excluding the UK)
  • Specialised Safety Solutions: The Aresta range is engineered for the unique challenges of the access industry, featuring low-profile gear to prevent snagging and specialised technology to mitigate the "catapult effect" in platform baskets.
  • Durability and Compliance: All equipment is rigorously tested to meet stringent EN standards and is treated to resist oil, dirt, and UV degradation, ensuring long-term performance in harsh environments like construction sites and ports.
  • Seamless Integration: Customers can now source both high-quality machine parts and personal protective equipment (PPE) from a single, trusted source, simplifying compliance and fleet management.

"Safety and reliability are at the core of everything we do," said Rik Vanwildemeersch, Market Management Specialist at TVH. "By bringing Aresta’s world-class fall protection into the TVH family, we are bridging the gap between mechanical reliability and human safety, ensuring every operator who goes up in the morning comes down safely in the evening."
