Infrastructure Access Solutions

Precision-Engineered Access for Tunnels, Bridges and Nuclear Projects

We provide specialised access systems for infrastructure where safety, reliability, and precision are non-negotiable. Our engineers combine global expertise with local standards to ensure complex operations remain safe, efficient, and fully compliant. By implementing a robust fall protection system, we help mitigate risks during both construction and long-term maintenance. 

Custom Access Designed for Safety and Performance

Every facade access project has its unique challenges. Our engineers create access solutions that adapt to environmental conditions, safety regulations, and operational objectives, delivering systems that are safe, compliant, and performance-driven. We ensure that every working at height protocol is integrated into the design phase. This includes the strategic placement of anchor points to protect personnel in the most challenging environments.

Tunnel and Shaft Construction Access

Our experts bring unmatched knowledge to tunnel and shaft construction, improving underground safety and productivity. Solutions include:

  • Invert bridges for secure tunnel floor access
  • Rack and pinion elevators for safe shaft transport
  • Protective shaft covers
  • Smart spreader bars for precise lifting

These systems are designed to meet the highest safety standards while supporting efficient project workflows. To further enhance safety, we can integrate a horizontal lifeline for workers navigating narrow or elevated sections of the tunnel.

Bridge Construction and Maintenance Systems

With experience on more than 50 bridges across 20 countries, we offer both permanent and temporary solutions. Permanent systems include underdeck gantries, building maintenance units, stay cable gantries, tower inspection units, and specialised davits. Temporary platforms provide safe access during construction or refurbishment. Our suspended access equipment is engineered to provide stable work platforms. Furthermore, we provide the necessary safety equipment, such as a high-quality safety harness and safety lanyard, to ensure total security for bridge technicians.

Nuclear Facility Access and Lifting Equipment

As an ISO 19443-certified supplier, we deliver access, lifting, and fall protection solutions that support critical nuclear operations. From filter replacement systems to precision winching units and overhead cranes, every solution enhances safety, reliability, and operational efficiency in nuclear facilities.

We are part of the Alimak Group, supported by world-leading brands Tractel, Manntech, and CoxGomyl. This ensures our clients receive proven engineering expertise, advanced technologies, and a global track record of over 16,000 installations.

Our solutions combine international innovation with the European, Middle Eastern, African, and Indian standards. Every system is designed for compliance with local codes and stringent safety regulations, ensuring long-term reliability. With teams across the Europe, Middle East, Africa, and India, we provide consistent support for projects of any size.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are facade access solutions for infrastructure projects?

These are specialised systems, including fall protection, gantries, elevators, and platforms, designed to ensure safety while providing efficient access for construction, inspection, and maintenance in complex environments.

Which industries require specialised access solutions?

Industries including transportation, energy, oil & gas, manufacturing, and nuclear rely on custom access systems to meet safety and compliance challenges.

How is compliance with European, Middle Eastern, African, and Indian safety standards ensured?

All systems are engineered to meet or exceed international and local regulations, industry codes, and project-specific requirements. Our compliance-driven design ensures safe, legally sound operations.

What is the difference between permanent and temporary access systems?

Permanent systems provide ongoing access for inspection, maintenance, and repairs, while temporary solutions are for short-term construction or refurbishment projects. Both are designed for safety, durability, and efficiency.
