So let’s dive into your typical construction site, it’s an environment where time counts. There’s a constant demand for efficient progress with deadlines that need to be met while there are multiple ongoing tasks overlapping. Here, having a quick and efficient solution for working platforms is crucial, however, when this site pushes for these deadlines, it can’t ever be at the expense of safety.

Gael Form Cantidecks meet this need perfectly. Their modular design and pre-assembled components enable rapid installation for this site’s team. Unlike traditional scaffolding, which would require extensive labour and several hours to assemble if used on this site, Cantidecks are straightforward and intuitive. The decks can be attached and secured with minimal effort, enabling crews to quickly shift their focus from setup to the core construction activities.

Fast assembly is invaluable here and is key to beginning or maintaining the momentum needed on all projects. Instead of requiring a large crew and spending half the day on platform assembly, this site’s small team can handle the entire setup process for Cantidecks in a fraction of the time. That means reduced labour costs and more hands available for other critical tasks. Simply put, less time for this crew spent assembling means more time building.

However, speed means little without safety. The well-being of this site’s team is the top priority, as is the case on any construction. Elevated platforms can introduce significant risks if they are not designed with safety in mind. That’s why our Cantidecks come equipped with several features to ensure workers remain secure throughout the project.

Anti-slip surfaces are an essential feature of Cantidecks, providing a stable footing even during challenging conditions, such as rain or when surfaces become dusty. The integrated guardrails offer additional edge protection, which significantly reduces the risk of falls. Workers can move confidently, knowing that their platform is designed with features that actively protect them.

Another important consideration is platform stability. These Cantidecks incorporate a counterbalancing system. For this site the stability is crucial as workers move materials across the platform, as it minimises the chance of unexpected movement or tipping. On a project where safety is paramount, these features provide peace of mind, allowing workers to focus fully on the task at hand.

Often there’s a perception that prioritising speed may come at the cost of safety, or visa versa. However, Gael Form has ignored this thought and believes they are not mutually exclusive. The rapid installation capability means that platforms can be set up with minimal delay, but at no point is worker safety compromised. In fact, the speed of Cantideck installation is an asset to safety. The quicker and easier the platform is to assemble on this site, the less time workers spend in precarious positions, reducing the overall risk. By providing a solution that requires fewer manual adjustments and less time at height, Cantidecks help to lower exposure to potential hazards during the assembly phase.

The combination of this installation speed and safety, means that this entire project benefits. Thanks to Gael Form Cantidecks workers are more productive, timelines are maintained, and everyone on-site gets to go home every evening.
