Construction Week is one of the high spots of the industry’s calendar. It’s the ideal opportunity for TB Davies, with new partner Tubesca-Comabi, to showcase not just the highly-anticipated X-Tower but also the new Raptor Podium Step line. Safety is key at TB Davies – and we’re proud to be demonstrating two such innovative and safety-conscious products at UK Construction Week. From 18-20 October 2016, the Build Show at Birmingham’s NEC will feature more than 1,000 exhibitors, hosting an estimated 24,000+ building and construction industry contractors and professionals. Our Head of Business Development, Francis Camilleri, rates the show highly: ‘The Build Show is the most comprehensive event dedicated to knowledge sharing, championing good practice and problem solving for the construction industry. We are looking forward to showing visitors how we can work safely at height using the latest climbing technology.’ Earlier this year, TB Davies joined forces with Tubesca-Comabi, the market leader for ladders and access equipment in France, to become their preferred partner for industrial and professional ranges in the UK. The Build Show is a fantastic opportunity to see the latest industry innovations of Tubesca’s professional range in action:
The X-Tower
The X-Tower, which was unveiled earlier this year, couldn’t be simpler or safer to operate. It can be built from the ground within 3 minutes to a platform of 2.8m (with a working height of 4.8m). Crucially, the user is never exposed to a fall whilst erecting it. The revolutionary telescopic design means it can be transported in the back of a vehicle and unlike push-around powered access can be manoeuvred easily over rough terrain.
The Raptor Podium Step
The Raptor Podium Step combines the safety and security of a podium step with the convenience of a stepladder. The fully enclosed guardrail effortlessly folds so the entire steps folds completely flat for storage and transport. Thoughtful features include compact stabilisers, an integrated fabric tool holder and wheels that provide easy movement around site. The step is designed for intensive use featuring tough spun-rung ‘Duraclimb’ technology. Francis Camilleri explains the key advantages of their innovative design: ‘Traditional modular scaffolding and podiums are not popular with contractors due to their complexity, bulky design and limited height options. Thanks to an intelligent telescopic design and industrial construction, the X-Tower and its counterparts the Raptor and Profort allow users to reach the correct height quickly in a safe, compact and robust work platform.’ Don’t miss TB Davies at UK Construction Week 2016.
