German rental company Wörlen has taken delivery of a Ruthmann 100m working height Steiger T 1000 HF during a handover ceremony at the Manufacturer’s headquarters.

“For the family-owned company, this was much more than just an addition to its fleet, it was an emotional event marking the next big step in the company’s development,” said Ruthmann. 

Founded in 1994 in Reimlingen, Bavaria, Wörle now operates throughout Germany and beyond. Its services range from work platform services, sewer cleaning, stump grinding and tree felling to the rental of cranes, sanitary facilities and event equipment, and is a member of the PartnerLift association.

Family connection 

Since December 2024, Felix Wörle has been running the company together with Jörg Wörle and both have have had ‘Club of 100’ tattood on themselves to mark the occasion. Club 100 club was originally founded as part of the exclusive launch of the T 1000 HF.

Ruthmann colleagues involved in the project lined up to form a guard of honour and signed the tower of the vehicle, making the new T 1000 HF truly unique.

The model reaches a working height of 100m and offers a lateral reach of up to 39m, surpassing comparable 100m truck-mounted work platforms by up to 10m in terms of reach, says the company. 

Another advantage is that the T 1000 HF is built on a standard chassis and has a total weight of 53 tonnes on the road – around 10 tonnes less than comparable models. With a total length of only 16.35 metres, it remains compact and flexible in use despite its performance data, added Ruthmann.
