In industries where working at height is a daily necessity, the reliability of safety equipment is paramount. 

Ridgegear, a prominent UK-based manufacturer, has been at the forefront of producing top-tier height safety equipment since 1998. Their extensive range includes safety harnesses, lanyards, fall arrest blocks, and rescue kits, all meticulously designed and tested to the highest standards.

However, even the most robust equipment can deteriorate over time without proper maintenance and servicing. 

This is where we step in at SSD Safety Ltd, offering specialised Ridgegear equipment servicing in London and surrounding areas. By ensuring that safety gear remains in optimal condition, we help businesses comply with legal safety standards while protecting workers from potentially fatal falls.

The Importance Of Regular Equipment Servicing

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) mandates that all personal protective equipment (PPE) used for fall protection undergo regular inspections and maintenance. Failing to adhere to these regulations can not only lead to legal consequences but also compromise the safety of workers operating at height.

Regular servicing provides several key benefits, such as:

• Ensures Safety Compliance – Businesses must comply with UK regulations, including PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998) and LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998).

• Prevents Equipment Failures – Routine checks help identify wear and tear before issues escalate into serious safety hazards.

• Prolongs Equipment Lifespan – Servicing extends the usability of Ridgegear products, saving companies from frequent replacement costs.

• Provides Peace Of Mind – Workers can perform their duties confidently, knowing they are protected by well-maintained safety gear.
