1. Edge Protection Barriers Keep The Workers Safe While They Perform Their Duties In any construction site of any form, construction workers need safe working zones. The design and installation of edge protection barriers are the most important part of any construction site. These are also commonly known as fall prevention systems. These are installed in different ways like under construction roofs, balconies, steps, and anywhere to keep the workers safe from falling. Edge protection systems need to be designed as per the international standards laid down in this field. Affixscaffolding is a popular name manufacturing various types of edge protection systems keeping in view various requirements of constriction sites. Workers’ safety comes first Edge protection is a broad area of construction site protection and an inseparable part of other construction tools and systems that site workers use every day.
