Aerial Work Platform Seat Supplier for Machine Builders and Distributors:Seats With Belt, Microswitch and Electronic Lock Options
KL Seating is an aerial work platform seat supplier and factory direct manufacturer for machine builders, distributors and importers. Aerial work platforms sit in the ground support and municipal group of our application list, next to sweepers and refuse trucks.
The driving position on these machines is compact, and a buyer often wants the seat to leave the factory already fitted with a seat belt, a microswitch or an electronic lock. The three columns below list which models carry which part on their published sheets.
Our sheets hold no data specific to aerial work platforms and no table that links a platform model to a seat model. Send the machine make and model, photos of the old seat, and the base hole and voltage situation, and we reply with a matching model and its parameter sheet.
- Seat manufacturer since 2007, own brand KL Seating since 2016
- 500,000 seats a year from our own production lines
- ISO 9001:2015, CE, RoHS and REACH certificates
- 35,000 m² production base with its own research and development center

The sheets do not state the belt type, the buckle side or the anchor position on the seat frame. These are fixed in the specification.
