2450x1750mm and have a WLL of 2.5
tonnes. Each platform has forklift
pockets allowing it to be easily moved
around the yard, and telescopic legs
for working at variable heights. To
ensure safe spanning of any gaps, the
front edge of each platform has a
4mm thick, 450mm wide bridging
plate able to withstand 2 tonnes.
Transdek operations director Leon
Butler says: "They provide a simple
solution for reducing the hazards in
the yard."
According to the HSE around
2,000 workers are seriously injured
every year as a result of falling from a
vehicle, and about five fatally.
