Rope access for industrial facilities

A maintenance task twenty metres up should not need a week of scaffold first. Our technicians reach tanks, structures and plant by rope and are off site when the task is done.

Questions from industrial sites

Have you worked on an operating facility?

Yes. We cleaned the fuel storage tanks at Vancouver International Airport with the tank farm in operation.

What do you need from us to start?

Site induction, the permit to work, anchor or structure information and a contact for the day.

Is rope access accepted by WorkSafeBC?

Yes. Rope access is regulated under Part 34 of the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation, and our technicians hold the IRATA or SPRAT certification it calls for.

Can you supply a crew for a shutdown?

Yes. Tell us the dates and the tasks and we will confirm crew size and shifts.
