Accolade for latest sweeper

The Citymaster 1600 has been certified and recommended by Germany's Aktion Gesunder Rücken (Campaign for Healthy Backs) and the Association of German Back Therapy Centres.

The sweeper impressed the organisations with its ergonomic design that provides maximum comfort and support for operators.

Sylvie Giangolini, Hako sales director, explained: "Reducing the risk of back problems means that less working days are lost through ill health, further reducing costs to the employer - not to mention the very real suffering of the employee."

"In the case of the Citymaster 1600, operators benefit from a full suspension chassis, a range of seating options, spacious cabin, excellent visibility and an innovative, integrated control panel."
