One company innovation leads to dramatic change

Facilities that use handrails, ladders and safety cages face the common problem of maintenance costs and worker-safety issues — however, one maintenance company has found a technologically-advanced product that will end rust and unnecessary costs for good.

R&D Contracting, a specialist maintenance company for the commercial and industrial sectors, has recently introduced a product by Dynarail to their list of value added services of which has already resulted in massive maintenance-cost reduction.

“Dynarail’s products, which include Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) for handrails and ladders as well as Fibergrate molded grating walking surfaces, have made costly periodic maintenance almost non-existent,” says David Williams, Sales Director of R&D Contracting.

According to Williams, the lifespan of these products alone have already attracted customers from the oil and gas, chemical, bridge and highway industries; and owing to the benefits of FRP as well as its non-corrosive properties, the mining sector has particularly taken an interest in this product.

“Corrosion Prone mild steel structures are so problematic,” says Williams, explaining that the continual maintenance of the steel railings means that “business as usual is inevitably interrupted with associated maintenance budget impact and down time as safety in these areas are compromised.” In addition to this, installation of the product, which includes pre-drilled hoops for easy assembly, means that companies do not have to place a halt on business to install these products.

“These products are UV-protected and can be painted to clients corporate colour specification with a high quality Polyurethane top coat, structures exposed to high UV weathering will benefit incalculably,” adds Williams, emphasising that since R&D Contracting uses innovation as a key principle in its undertakings, with safety at its core, he is “proud to use Dynarail products in all our maintenance work.”
