The company was founded in 1987 and has since played a pioneering role, offering innovative solutions that can be adapted to specific customer requirements and simplify working at height.
Since its foundation in Nogara, in the Italian province of Verona, the company has continuously and successfully innovated its products. Significant investments have been made in cutting-edge technology and new machines, such as the Performance IIIS series, Bi-Energy technology, and the fully electric lithium/ion drive. The headquarters has also undergone numerous transformations and now boasts 30,000 square meters of covered facilities, with a total surface area of 90,000 square meters. The development of new technologies focuses on the environment and ease of use.

Hinowa is firmly committed to the environment. The company is constantly improving its production processes by creating a wide range of machines with a green soul. The photovoltaic installation on the roof of the head office, for example, generates 300 kW without increasing CO2emissions. To reduce its ecological footprint, Hinowa also uses a water recirculation system and certain components of biological origin. These include water-based paint for machine parts, reuse of purified water to wash the machines, and biodegradable oil.

But the element that best highlights the company's green spirit is undoubtedly the electric motor available for all aerial platform models. The lithium/ion system allows indoor operation and is the ideal solution for protecting the ecosystem. Naturally, this is without compromising the typical high performance of Hinowa machines.

The result is that aerial work platforms equipped with lithium-ion technology:
• do not emit smoke;
• Do not make any noise;
• consume no fuel;
• Do not have electrical cables lying around.
What's more, they are ideal for those who need a fast, accessible, compact, and lightweight machine with a considerable working range.
Did you know that...?
• Lithium-ion batteries have an extremely long service life, longer than traditional lead-acid batteries? They can also be charged while the machine is in operation.
• the costs for management and use are very limited? This is because there is no wear and tear or defects associated with a normal combustion engine.
• …the cost of charging is limited to one-third of that of traditional fuel?
• …energy savings are guaranteed by the fact that the motor is only powered when a movement is performed (start/stop technology)?
• …the capacity, operating speed, and power of the lithium/ion machine's mast sections remain unchanged over time and are comparable to those of a machine with a combustion engine?
• …given their highly ecological nature and limited impact on the environment, they can operate in environments where combustion engine machines are prohibited?
• …the efficiency of an electric motor is higher than that of a combustion engine?
• …the cells of the lithium/ion system guarantee 2,000 cycles with a full charge or 4,000 with a half charge? The estimated battery life is so much longer than the payback period!
