Wide range of equipment for safe work on roofs

If you work on a roof, we have the equipment you need to work safely and efficiently. Depending on what the roof looks like, what you have to do and how often you need to perform your tasks, we have fall protection equipment for you and equipment that makes your work safer. Being able to pick yourself up after a fall over the edge or to help your colleague if something should happen requires above all knowledge on your part but also the right equipment.

Roofing work always involves an increased risk of falling and places high demands on planning, the right method and correct equipment. Here you will find professional equipment for roof work and fall protection for roof work adapted for professional use in construction, property, industry and energy.

Fall protection for roof work

Falls from roofs are one of the most common causes of serious workplace accidents. Therefore, the risk of falling should always be assessed before starting work. Different protective measures may be required depending on the type of roof, the slope and the type of work:

• Collective fall protection (railings, safety nets, temporary protection systems)
• Personal fall protection equipment (harness, lanyard, fall arrestor, anchor point)
• Permanent or temporary anchoring systems

Personal fall protection equipment is a complement when collective protection is not possible or sufficient.

For which roofing work is personal fall protection equipment sufficient?

Personal fall protection equipment may be sufficient for example:

• Short-term service and maintenance work
• Inspections
• Minor installation works
• Snow clearing where there is no fixed shelter

The prerequisite is that a documented risk assessment shows that personal fall protection equipment provides adequate protection, that approved anchorage points are available and that a rescue plan is in place.

For more extensive roofing work, new construction or where several people are working at the same time, collective protection measures are often required under health and safety legislation.
