In this contract, engineers from PTSG Access & Safety Ltd will provide Mansafe systems and walkways at the facility. Mansafe systems comprising stainless steel wire rope, posts and fixings provide users with an approved, tested and inspected method of safe access/work. These systems can be horizontal, vertical and overhead.
Roof walkways provide a delineated access route that restricts the worker to safe zones when working at height. Walkways provide traction for user to prevent slips and trip, but also work to protect the roof surface from foot traffic.
