    Working at Heights

    Gravity doesn’t care if you’re working 3 metre off the ground or even 100 metre — falls can happen at any height. It’s why our dedicated team of fall protection specialists meet with our customers in the field to better understand their unique challenges. This allows us to develop systems and services to help keep workers confident, safe and compliant no matter what their application or industry.

    Fall protection isn’t just for people. Their tools, equipment and other objects dropped from height can be extremely hazardous to workers below. From construction sites to oil rigs, we help make work environments safer and more productive by protecting workers from hazards that can result in personal injury, equipment damage and tool loss.
