Safety First with Chemglass
Chemglass ladders are constructed from pultruded GRP (glass reinforced plastic) sections which weight-for weight are stronger than steel. Because of the inherent chemical resistance of GRP , our ladders are ideally suited for duty in corrosive environments, such as those found in the water, waste and chemical industries.
Nothing is left to chance
The ladder stringers are formed with a rigid and easy to grip channel (although box section ones are also available), whilst the rungs have an anti-slip serrated surface. The rungs are both mechanically jointed and epoxy-bonded for total safety, and we rigorously control the quality of our workmanship.
Water Bylaws Scheme - Approved Product
Our ladders have been tested in accordance with BS 6920, and are suitable for use in contact with cold potable (drinking) water.
A Tailored Package
With Chemglass your needs determine our design. You may want only the odd length, or may require a complete access package including fixing brackets and anchors, a safety cage and either a permanent walk-through top, or a retractable handhold which provides a safe means of entering restricted areas, like a manhole.
Endurance
The ladders and associated equipment are manufactured in dimensional accordance with both B.S. 4211 (1987), and B.S. 5495 (1985). Any metal accessories and fastenings are formed in stainless-steel.
Installation
We offer a nationwide installation service, and will be pleased to carry out a site survey.
