EWP Certification in Newcastle
Newcastle certification work spans two worlds: port and industrial plant around Kooragang and the harbour — where scissor lifts, boom lifts and knuckle booms answer to heavy-industry audit regimes — and machines feeding the Hunter Valley's mines, where site compliance officers read inspection reports line by line. Cherry pickers serving the region's utility and infrastructure contractors work the same corridor, subject to the same annual inspection obligation. Neither world accepts a rubber-stamp annual.
EWP Australia certifies scissor lifts, boom lifts, cherry pickers and truck-mounted platforms across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and Maitland, and up the valley through Cessnock, Singleton and Muswellbrook. Inspections are done to AS 2550.10 with NDT and load testing added where a site's requirements or the machine's duty demands it, and documentation is delivered mine-spec by default rather than as an extra.
EWP Certification — The Scope
- Annual (periodic) inspection to AS 2550.10 and the manufacturer's requirements
- Structural, hydraulic, electrical and safety-system checks
- Function and operational testing of all controls, including emergency lowering
- Logbook and compliance-plate verification
- Audit-ready inspection report and certification documentation
- Defect list with clear priorities if the machine doesn't pass first time

EWP Certification in Newcastle — Common Questions
Can you certify to Hunter Valley mine-site standard?
Yes — inspection and testing documentation to the standard mine sites require is core Hunter work. Give us the site's spec and we build it into the inspection scope.
Do you cover the Upper Hunter or just Newcastle itself?
The whole corridor — Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and Maitland through to Singleton and Muswellbrook, with valley visits grouped so travel is shared across jobs.
10-Year Major Inspection — Newcastle
Every EWP reaches a 10-year major inspection milestone — a full structural strip-down, NDT of welds and pins, load testing and engineering documentation that resets the machine's compliance baseline. If your Newcastle machine is approaching or past ten years, this is the next step.
