PMC Safety Netting Ltd

Solutions for installing Pre-cast Flooring

Fall from height are the main hazards associated with the pre-cast
flooring industry today.

The Health & safety Executives are targeting unsafe working practices
within this industry & where practical preferring the installation of
safety netting against the use of safety harnesses & running lines. The
‘Pre-cast Flooring Federation, for the safe erection of pre-cast
concrete flooring & associated components, Code of Practice’, has
also endorsed this.

P.M.C. – Safety Netting believes that safety netting offers unhindered
& increased movement for workers above, whilst offering total
protection within the netted area with freedom below for other
trades. The safety nets are rigged below the steel work using specially
designed clamps, thus allowing the beams to sit directly onto the
steel work & not trapping any tie cords.

Falls are the main hazard in the roof work & when working at height.
Operatives are exposed to leading edges, fragile roof sheets, skylights
& partly fixed sheets from which they can fall.

The safety nets are normally rigged as close to the underside of the
roof as possible tying around purlin cleats or main steel
work members.

Safety Netting installed by our ‘FASET’ trained erectors will allow
unhindered movement for those working above whilst offering you
piece of mind that they are working within a protected zone.

Safety nets, complete with debris overlay netting attached, will not
only protect those working above from falls but will also protect
those below from falling materials or equipment. This will also allow
greater program flexibility for the main contractor.

Safety netting can be installed in almost all roofing &flooring
situations to prevent injuries due to falls.

The nets can be suspended from the around the steelwork,
underneath the steelwork using specially design clamps or over wall
plates utilising tested ‘wall hangers’ to protect the persons working
above from falls.

Our safety netting is manufactured in accordance with EN 1263-1.
Each net is subjected to a vigorous inspection regime prior to been
allocated to a specific project & tested annually to ensure it meets
the required standard.

All safety net erectors are all trained to the CITB Safety Net Riggers
administrated scheme ‘FASET’ (Fall Arrest Safety Equipment Training) &
hold ‘IPAF’ (International Powered Access Federation) licenses to
operate mobile elevating work platforms.
