In-House Product Testing: How Australian Scaffold Ensures Superior Edge Protection Equipment

At Australian Scaffold & Access Pty Ltd, safety is more than just a buzzword—it is our cornerstone. We understand the stakes involved in working at heights, which is why we have developed a rigorous in-house product testing process for our edge protection equipment. Led by our in-house engineer, Kiri Loganathan, our testing protocols not only ensure compliance with Australian Standards but also exceed them to deliver unparalleled safety and reliability.

Here’s an inside look at how our commitment to quality testing benefits our customers and positions Australian Scaffold as an industry leader in edge protection.

The Importance of Rigorous Product Testing

When it comes to edge protection equipment, the margin for error is non-existent. Falls from heights are one of the leading causes of workplace injuries in Australia, making it imperative to invest in high-quality and thoroughly tested products. At Australian Scaffold, we recognise that the reliability of our edge protection range is critical to safeguarding lives, which is why we take a proactive approach to quality assurance.

Meet Kiri Loganathan: The Expert Behind the Excellence

Kiri Loganathan, our in-house engineer, plays a pivotal role in ensuring the structural integrity and compliance of our edge protection products. With years of experience and expertise in structural engineering, Kiri conducts exhaustive testing to ensure every component meets and exceeds the requirements set by Australian Standards, including AS/NZS 4994.1.

By having a dedicated engineer on-site, we can identify and resolve potential design challenges in real time. Kiri’s meticulous attention to detail ensures that every product we release is not only compliant but also capable of withstanding the most demanding conditions on construction sites across Australia.

The Testing Process- Edge Protection

1. Material Inspection

Before any product enters the market, it undergoes a thorough inspection of its materials. We verify the durability and resilience of raw materials to ensure they meet our stringent quality standards. This process guarantees that the components of our edge protection equipment are capable of withstanding the rigours of real-world use.

2. Load Testing

One of the critical aspects of edge protection equipment is its ability to handle dynamic and static loads. Kiri Loganathan oversees load testing procedures to simulate the stresses that our equipment might encounter during use. By doing so, we can confirm that our products provide maximum safety under various conditions.

3. Design Validation

Each product’s design is tested to validate its functionality and ease of installation. Our team ensures that the equipment not only performs as intended but also allows for efficient deployment on-site, saving valuable time for our customers.

4. Environmental Testing

Construction sites are often subject to harsh environmental conditions, from extreme heat to heavy rainfall. Our edge protection products are tested for corrosion resistance and durability to ensure they perform reliably in all weather conditions.

5. Compliance Product Testing

Adhering to Australian Standards is non-negotiable. Our in-house testing ensures that every product meets the requirements of AS/NZS 4994.1, giving our customers peace of mind that they are using equipment that is both legal and safe.
