Corporate Responsibility

Falls from height remain the single biggest cause of death, disability and injury in construction. According to the Department of Trade and Industry, one person each week is killed in an accident involving ladders, and a further 40,000 each year require hospital treatment. In light of these figures, employers now have a legal, as well as a moral duty to ensure activities involving work at height are safely carried out.

Companies today operate in an environment where there in an increasing awareness of the dangers of working at height and the responsibilities incumbent on employers by legislation such as 'The Work at Height Regulations 2005'.

Ladder Confidence

Some 70% of accidents could be prevented if proper safety control measures were taken for ladder users.

Gripping Technology

The brainchild of the winning design of the Gafa Koln award, Graham Robinson, created a revolution in ladder safety - the Ladder M8rix.

It works by heavy duty, load bearing metal grips securing the feet of the ladder even when the ladder is on potentially hazardous surfaces such as oily & wet wood, gravel, concrete, grass and even on solid ice.

Always choose quality when buying equipment for working at height.
