Noblelift’s Malaysia-based customer Ban Ngai Rent (BNR) will this month take delivery of its 1000th Noblelift scissor lift. This milestone has been reached in just 12 months, as BNR, a sister company of Kuala Lumpur-based Ban Ngai Engineering, was launched in March 2024 and took delivery of its first Noblelift scissor in June 2024.

Since launching last year, the company has already expanded its fleet to 2,200 MEWPs and has ambitious plans to further increase that number rapidly at its locations across Southeast Asia. The company already has operations in Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam. BNR is actively exploring opportunities to expand its footprint into Singapore and Indonesia, with plans to establish a presence in both markets within the year

“Our ambition is for BNR to be one of the top 3 regional providers of powered access in South East Asia,” says Dato’ Ong Joe-U, owner and Managing Director of parent group Ban Ngai. This foresees a steady increase in the fleet, and Chris Chin, BNR’s Sales Director SEA Region, is clear that Noblelift’s Access Division “will play an important part in this growth, we already have every model that Noblelift produces in our fleet”. BNR is actively pursuing market leadership by enhancing customer value through investments in parts and fleet management systems, telemetry data solutions, and delivering a ‘Wow’ customer experience

“We are proud to partner with BNR as our South East Asia regional distributor,” says Noblelift Sales Director Amy Liang, adding that “BNR has our full range of scissor lifts, from 6m to 16m working height. The dynamic and rapid expansion of BNR is truly impressive”.

“BNR is one of the rising stars in the access rental sector and will soon take delivery of some of Noblelift’s first electric booms. We truly value the trust that BNR places in our product and our after-sales service and support,” said Noblelift Access Division CEO Tim Whiteman.
