Technical Info

The Safetycross walkway board is a highly versatile and safe trench cover, designed for covering apertures, bores or trenches during maintenance, construction and repair projects. The walkway boards allow safe access and passage over and around site excavations for pedestrian and light vehicular access. Installation is quick and simple by either fixing pins ideal for bitumen surfaces, or butyl adhesive developed for stone or concrete surfaces. Approved by Transco, most local authorities and utility companies, they are a highly cost effective solution to site safety and access, and are fully compliant with UK and European Legislation. Available in a range of colours with molded in logos to match corporate identity. As we manufacture the SMC in-house, smaller batches are available.
