Reach new heights safely with new Roebuck range

April 9, 2008 - PRLog -- With falls from heights accounting for approximately 70 fatalities and 4,000 major injuries every year, the Roebuck range promotes safety and eliminates the risk of falls.

The range is available exclusively from Buck & Hickman.  It includes different ladders, step-ladders, work platforms, mobile steps and working towers.

Of note is the Sherpascopic Work Platform.  Telescopic legs and outriggers make it ideal for working on uneven surfaces.  An extra large work platform, complete with a toe board and guardrail, and an enclosed safety zone work area all ensure worker safety.

With a workload capacity of 150kg, the Sherpascopic Work Platform is manufactured to specific work platform specifications.  The platform can also be easily moved around thanks to its super size wheel and can be folded away for easy storage.

Commenting on the new range of new Roebuck ladders and working at height solutions, Graham Blackburn, product manager: “With health and safety issues becoming a major concern for employers, our latest range of Roebuck ladders will help limit the amount of fatalities and injuries caused by falls.

“Our range of ladders and working at height solutions allow employers to be confident that by using these Roebuck products they are fulfilling their duty to ensure work at height is carried out in a safe manner.”
