WEB Net

WEB Net is a tensioned netting system which provides a quick to install working platform to work areas at height. There is no tensioned netting system comparable to WEB Net.

Benefits

WEB Net is a cost effective alternative to scaffolding. The benefits of WEB Net over scaffolding include:

Faster installation and dismantling time reduces costs: WEB Net cuts installation and dismantling time by about 75%.

Lower transport & storage costs: WEB Net is approximately 5 - 10% of the weight and volume of scaffolding and therefore is easier and cheaper to transport. Storage space required on site and in the yard is also reduced.

Lower load weight: WEB Net has a significantly lower load weight allowing it to be used on structures that do not have a high load capacity.

Safer installation & dismantling: WEB Net is installed by rope access methods. Rope access is statistically safer than fall arrest methods used for scaffolding. In addition, the overall exposure to work at height time is reduced as the system is installed quickly.

Fully compliant with all relevant regulations: Regulates with all aspects of UK Work At Height Regulations 2005 and Lifting Operations & Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998. Lightweight system that complies with Manual Handling Regulations.

Work Tasks

WEB Net provides a walk on work platform suitable for a wide variety of work tasks including:

  • Surface preparation and coating application
  • Steelwork repairs
  • Masonry & Concrete repairs
  • Pipework installation and repairs
  • Inspection

This multifunctional system can be altered to include:

  • Debris Containment Net
  • Heavyweight Debris Containment Net
  • Site Protection Net
  • Total Containment for Overside Work
  • Fireproofing to permit hot works
  • Wire Rope Net

Specification

  • WEB Net is made from High Tenacity Polyester which is UV stabilised for 5 years
  • The Net is knotted to prevent tearing
  • 5 Test Cord strips are attached to the net for annual testing to ensure continued sterngth of the net which complies with LOLER 1998
  • Each net has a unique ID and tag identifying the specification
  • All rigging components are constructed by European manufacturers and supplied with a Certificate of Conformity, Test Certificate, and/or Proof Load Test and Identification Certificate

Installation

WEB Net is installed by rope access technicians who have attended a WEB Net certified netting installation course and are certified OPITO or EMTA / EAL riggers.

Operatives who work from the net are attched to a primary twin rope or wire rope safety system. This ensures they comply with The Work At Height 2005 Regulations and BS7985 2002 Regulations. If a total containment system is utilised then operatives require only to be trained for work at height in order to work from the WEB Net.
