Mining
Reducing fatal accidents among mine workers is a concern for the mining industry world-wide. As the need to address mine safety issues becomes more pressing, those responsible for workers' health and safety are turning to Standfast's flagship products, Barnacle and TRAM.
World's best safety systems for mine workers
TRAM
TRAM is the world's best safety system for preventing falls from height on earthmoving equipment, dozers, front-end loaders, cranes or gantries . TRAM is currently being used in the mining industry to allow riggers safe access to mobile crane booms, to protect maintenance workers on gantry and bridge cranes and to provide safe access to equipment mounted on the cab roofs of mobile plant machinery.
In all of these applications, TRAM prevents miners falling from height and therefore avoids the risk of serious injury or a fatality.
MSHA supports the TRAM as an 'Accident Prevention' system for miners - click here to view.

Barnacle - coming soon
As a personal safety system for miners and mine workers, Barnacle has no equal. Its range of mounting options allow it to be fixed in a variety of positions, including overhead, either temporarily or permanently. While most safety devices have just one direction of pull, exposing the worker to entanglement and restricting their movement, Barnacle will change direction as the worker does, providing the ideal combination of mobility, stability and restraint.
Barnacle’s UV stabilisation and marine grade construction allow it to easily withstand the harsh, corrosive environment of the mining industry without compromising safety.
With Barnacle and TRAM, everyone on site will get home safely. For orders or enquiries, contact us.
