Safe Shoring, Forming, and Scaffolding Equipment

Engineered by an experienced and award-winning team, all of our products are designed according to North American and international safety standards. Our forming and shoring systems have a 2.5:1 safety factor, whereas our scaffolding is 4:1.

We satisfy the requirements of the following Canadian Standards Act (CSA) codes for testing shoring, forming, and scaffolding equipment at our in-house facility:

  • CAN/CSA – S269.1
  • CAN/CSA – S269.2 – M 87

Our safety design strategy is based on:

  • Testing all shoring, forming, and scaffolding equipment in our in-house, modern testing facility to satisfy CSA and SSFI (USA) standards. We meet all safety requirements of the CSA code (CAN/CSA – S269.2 – M87 and CAN-CSA – S269.1) for all our shoring, scaffolding, and formwork testing.
