Scaffolding 
Types &
Systems

HAKI has the most adaptable and durable safe access solutions on the market. The systems are compatible with each other and can be used time and time again in a variety of structures. We also ensure that our newer systems work with the older ones, such as our system scaffold, so they are easy to grow with and lead to significant long term cost savings. 

 

Furthermore, HAKI is a clear market leader when it comes to safety, even in very tough environments when using our weather protection and worker safety systems. Our solutions have been known to increase productivity by up to 60% – due to minimal, lightweight components and a quick, simple ‘hook-on’ method of erection whilst improving the safety of operatives on every job when using Edge Protection.   

 

Most HAKI systems are manufactured in extremely durable high tensile, hot-dip galvanised steel or in aluminium. It has been known for HAKI system scaffolding products to still be in use for 30-40 years. This is good for the environment, good for the economy and good for the user who has made the investment. The material also is 30% lower in weight than comparable tube and fitting components.

In the United Kingdom, the scaffolding industry predominantly relies on conventional tube, fittings, and board equipment. This stands in contrast to global markets that have embraced more modular scaffolding approaches. Traditional scaffolding remains the favored choice within the UK for several compelling reasons:

 

1. Versatility: Traditional scaffolding systems offer versatile solutions for various construction needs, accommodating a wide range of project requirements.

2. Cost-Effective: They come with low initial investment costs and maintain high residual value over time, making them economically attractive.

3. Widespread Availability: Traditional scaffolding components are readily available, ensuring easy access for construction projects across the country.

4. Certified Training: The UK boasts a robust national certified training infrastructure, ensuring that scaffolding personnel receive proper training and certification.

5. Guidance and Compliance: Scaffolders benefit from accessible guidance and compliance documentation, such as TG20 or SG4, which streamlines safety and regulatory adherence.

6. Engineering Support: A well-established network of third-party design engineers provides extensive engineering support, ensuring the structural integrity and safety of scaffolding setups.

The Layher Protect System is compatible with Allround® and SpeedyScaf® equipment, offering a reliable solution for noise and dust containment, along with aesthetic enhancements.

​

This system consists of a lightweight aluminium frame that can be filled with either sheet steel or plastic webbing, forming a comprehensive enclosure around structures. It effectively provides protection both internally and externally. Moreover, it offers the option to incorporate sound-absorbing matting to reduce noise pollution.

​

For added versatility, a variety of panel sizes are available to match specific installation dimensions. This results in rapid, cost-effective applications that not only ensure safety but also contribute to an improved site appearance.

Due to their user-friendly characteristics, aluminium scaffolding tubes are a popular choice for various applications, including internal scaffolding structures and temporary handrailing projects.

It's worth noting that these tubes adhere fully to the BS 1139-1.2 standard.

​

Key Advantages of Aluminum Scaffold Tubes:

1. Abundant Material with High Recyclability: Aluminum is a readily available material that can be recycled efficiently, contributing to sustainability efforts.

2. Enhanced Handling Safety: These tubes are designed with safety in mind, making them easier to handle and reducing the risk of accidents.

3. Increased Productivity and Reduced Worker Fatigue: Their manageable weight and ergonomic design enhance productivity while minimizing worker fatigue.

4. Efficient Transportation: Aluminum tubes offer transportation efficiency, allowing more tubes to be loaded per truckload and optimising logistics.

5. Resistance to Saline Environments: They exhibit high resistance to saline atmospheres, making them suitable for coastal and offshore applications.

Aluminium scaffold tubes, with their versatility and performance, are a valuable choice for scaffolding and construction needs.
