Bringing Advanced Machine Safety Technology to Customers Across Ireland

Prolift Handling Ltd is pleased to announce a new partnership with Xwatch Safety Solutions, a leading manufacturer of machine safety and operator assistance systems for construction and plant machinery.

This partnership further strengthens Prolift's commitment to improving workplace safety by offering customers access to innovative technology designed to reduce risk, improve operator awareness and support safer working practices on site.

As Ireland's leading supplier of lifting equipment, material handling equipment and height safety solutions, Prolift continues to expand its portfolio with products that help customers operate more safely, efficiently and in compliance with modern site safety requirements.


About Xwatch Safety Solutions

Xwatch develops intelligent electronic safety systems that assist operators of excavators and other plant machinery when working in potentially hazardous environments.

Its technology is widely used throughout the construction, utilities, civil engineering, rail, infrastructure and demolition sectors to help minimise the risk of accidents caused by machine movement.

The systems provide operators with clear visual and audible warnings while automatically monitoring predefined operating limits, helping to improve both safety and productivity.

Whether working close to overhead power lines, buildings, roads, railways or other restricted areas, Xwatch systems provide an additional layer of protection for both operators and those working nearby.


Helping Create Safer Construction Sites

Modern construction sites are becoming increasingly complex, with multiple contractors, restricted working areas and demanding safety requirements.

Machine operators often need to work in close proximity to:

  • Overhead power lines
  • Existing buildings
  • Roadways
  • Rail infrastructure
  • Underground utilities
  • Pedestrian zones
  • Other mobile plant

Even experienced operators can benefit from additional electronic safety systems that help monitor machine movement and provide early warnings before dangerous situations develop.

By combining operator skill with intelligent monitoring technology, Xwatch helps improve overall site safety without interrupting productivity.
