A more safe workplace with fixed fall arrest installations

13 October 2020

Fixed fall arrest installations in height safety are currently increasing in the Nordics. Industries and property owners are becoming increasingly aware and want to create a safe and effective workplace for both their staff and external consultants.

As a specialist supplier of fixed systems, we always evaluate the business’s needs and environment before we come up with a proposal of how to simplify access to vulnerable areas and make work more secure, safe and efficient.

Currently we install and sell a lot of horizontal wire systems as it is a good solution for e.g. larger machines and traverses. We have an upcoming project in Borlänge where we will install a 600m custom fabricated wire, as a standard stainless steel wire cannot handle the hydrochloric acid environment found in this industry. Roof safety has also increased. Free-standing guard rails are often mounted on roofs as they are a simple solution that does not affect or damage the property. They are also a very cost-efficient solution to install.

Industries and real estate’s needs can range from very basic to requiring more advanced solutions. As we are a complete solution provider for height safety, we help with the entire package for those who wish; training, equipment, installation, documentation and annual inspection. Everything is documented in our database, Inspector and follow ups are done by our experts.

The fixed solutions described above are only a few of the many different systems we work with at Cresto. Another system we often install on and in building/industries is Horizontal rail systems. The rail system is user friendly, reliable and suitable for several different types of structures such as mounted on ceilings or facades. The user can move unhindered without having to reconnect the connecting line between the fixtures. The system can also be combined with cables, making it flexible and suitable for more challenging work.

A vertical rail system provides a stable and unhindered mobility of vertical structures such as ladders, towers and wind turbines etc. Vertical rail systems are specially designed for high heights where flexibility and mobility are the most important in the user's daily climb and descent.

Many customers we meet often express that fixed fall arrest systems make their work easy, safe and proficient.
