Our Commitment to Health & Safety
Scaffolding is crucial to almost every construction project - large or small. It provides a safe working platform and safe access to building works. And when tradespeople need to use scaffolding, you have to ensure it’s correctly erected and suitable for the tasks they will be carrying out.
All scaffolding supplied by MDS complies with current British and European regulations as well as the National Access and Scaffolding Confederation guidelines. We work to the following standards:
- TG20.13 Good Practice for Scaffolding Contractors Using Tube & Fittings
- SG4.15 Preventing Falls from Scaffolding
- BS EN 12811-1 Temporary Works Equipment: Scaffolds
