Edge Protection Scaffolding System in Qatar

With the increasing urbanization, an increasing number of high-rise and tall commercial building projects are coming up. Thus, construction companies and contractors are highly concerned for the health and safety of the onsite workers along with the debris protection. In the cast concrete construction, construction slabs extend beyond a building’s footprint and hence there is a chance for debris to fall over the edge unless the ideal edge protection system has been installed. It is a bitter truth that health and safety should never be compromised in the construction industry, so companies in this sector should invest in a good quality edge protection system.

Edge Protection Systems – The First Line of Defense

An edge protection system is a temporary structure used as the first line of defense to secure the open edges at construction sites and buildings to prevent workers or objects from falling from height. It is also known as a fall prevention system that secures building and construction edges, elevators, passageways, and other areas from where people or materials are at risk of falling from height. We, at Affix Scaffolding, offer a comprehensive range of edge protection systems that meet all the essential safety standards of the industry and ensure that construction companies meet all rigorous industry regulations.
