We have accreditations to ISO-9001, National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA) and ASNZ 1891.1 for the manufacture of fall arrest equipment and are a registered training organisation under the Australian Quality Training Framework. Our story is one of uncompromising quality and customer service, backed up with our renowned technical support.

Height safety products

SpanSet offers a wide range of height safety equipment including:

• Safety harnesses
• Shock absorbing lanyards
• Inertia reels
• Temporary safety lines
• Accessories
• Anchorages
• Kits

SpanSet also supplies the Gotcha range of rescue equipment. As part of your company's commitment to risk assessment you are already aware that you have to protect your operatives from the hazard of falls from height. These regulations apply to all workplaces and to all employees. Gotcha will provide rescue solutions / provisions for all your staff who wear fall arrest harnesses with shock absorbing lanyards, as long as you are able to safely access their anchor point.

Lifting systems

SpanSet can also provide a selection of quality lifting systems including flat and round synthetic slings, multi-leg round and flat slings, and lifting nets. Our popular drum lifters are designed for ribbed 44gal drums and are an easy and safe way of handling these awkward items.

SpanSet hi-tech web slings are exceptionally versatile. Among their many advantages are:

• Total sizing flexibility to suit the exact requirement.
• Wide, flat loadbearing surface
• Lift smooth or fragile objects without risk of damage
• Wide choice of lifting modes
• High strength to weight ratio
• Light and flexible for good access in awkward locations
• Anti-abrasion protection available
• Anti-cutting protection available
• Conform to Australian Standard AS1353

Load restraints

High quality load restraints are also available from SpanSet, including ABS premium ratchets, which offer greater tensioning and gradual release to reduce the risk of accidents. In the past, loosening the ratchet released the tension all at once, making unbalanced loads liable to tip over. This product’s innovative antibelt-slip-process allows the pretension force to be released in small steps so that the risk of a load tipping can be eliminated in plenty of time.

Quality means durability in all conditions. SpanSet ratchets are first galvanised, then chromated and finally coated in a tough epoxy resin. Whether it’s summer heat or winter freezes, knocks or salt water, these ratchets can handle it.

Rescue and height safety training

The SpanSet modular training approach has been set up to offer a clearer explanation of the options available in rescue and height safety training. This should make choosing the correct training for your staff quicker and easier. It will also allow you to demonstrate clearly to your clients the level of training and the topics that are covered.

SpanSet Australia offers a choice of rescue training options. This varies from the use of pre-selected rescue kits to more specialised industrial rescue scenarios. Offshore oil rig rescue situations can vary, so the need for various rescue techniques is required.

SpanSet provides rescue options such as remote access rescue, cut-off rescue, lift and lower rescue, casualty evacuation, abseil and self rescue techniques, casualty management and inspection of rope rescue equipment.

SpanSet offers simple, fast and effective rescue solutions by experienced personnel, on-site or at our facilities
