Turner Access is shortlisted as Finalists in this year’s Builder & Engineer Awards 2010 for Product / Innovation of the Year.
The awards submission focused on BetaGuard®, an Integral Advance Guardrail (Collective Protection Equipment) for use on Aluminium Towers.
BetaGuard® provides complete fall prevention during the assembly, dismantle and alteration processes.
Users also benefit from increased productivity and the BetaGuard® provides options for users to configure the tower as they require. BetaGuard® enables the user to choose the use of a single decks only or fully decking at each level of the tower. Users also have the option to use traditional bracing with the BetaGuard® frame or not. This saves on investment as unnecessary components, i.e. decks and braces, can be reduced or removed. A reduction in components provides savings on labour cost, while also reducing unnecessary exposure to manual handling risk.
The company’s dedicated team of engineers have helped to raise industry safety standards, ensure that the HSE’s guidelines are taken more seriously and prevented many potential injuries for individuals working at height.
