RMD Kwikform reintroduces Kwikstage Access scaffolding system into Ireland
RMD Kwikform, the global leaders in formwork falsework and ground shoring solutions has reintroduced its popular scaffolding access system, Kwikstage Access, into the Irish construction market.
Recognising the buoyancy of the construction sector in Ireland, and the increasing demand for high productivity access systems, RMD Kwikform felt that the time was right to reintroduce this popular system back into Ireland.
The high load rating with a high degree of rigidity make Kwikstage Access suitable for a huge variety of applications. With Project Ireland 2040 recently announced on the horizon and the huge variety of projects designated within this, an access system that is flexible to accommodate a huge range of uses will be in high demand.
Pat McGahan, RMD Kwikform’s Sales Director, believes that another one of Kwikstage Access’ strengths, its simplicity to erect and dismantle, will be key for many customers. “During the recession of 2008 and 2009, the construction industry lost many skilled trades, including scaffolders, as workers looked for opportunities overseas. These skills are still in short supply and the industry cannot afford to wait to train up new skilled workers. It’s here that a simple system like Kwikstage Access offers many advantages.”
The Kwikstage Access system itself is incredibly simple to erect, and using captive elements instead of loose fittings it is also easy to transport and to store. It also has the advantage of having a full suite of accessories to support it.
Says McGahan, “As the construction industry gears up to deliver all the projects that are currently being floated around, the need for simple to use, safe, and highly productive systems will increase. It is exactly here that Kwikstage Access comes into its own.”
