XLam understand that construction professionals rely on time-efficient and easy to install building solutions. Launched as a new initiative, XLam are pleased to offer ‘site solutions’. A series of prefabricated Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) products and components that address some of the more complex on-site challenges. A considerable benefit received when working with XLam CLT as the primary construction material on-site is the very high level of safety that can be achieved. Now XLam offer another way to improve site safety even further, XLam would like to introduce X-traint fall restraint anchors. XLam X-traint fall restraints are certified as 1-man and 2-man freefall restraint anchors. XLam has worked closely with Collins Corporation Ltd to develop a specifically engineered fall restraint system for optimal safety and performance. The fall restraint device is fixed to a proprietary RAMPA © insert which are pre-drilled into XLam panel at convenient locations. The fall restraint device is easy and fast to fix to the RAMPA © connections and can be re-used multiple times. The XLam fall restraint system is ductile and designed to deform upon impact. This takes significant energy out of the fall and ensures superior safety performance. A protective paint system ensures the device is durable in all New Zealand exposure zones. The XLam fall restraint system is Certified to AS/NZS 5532:2013, manufacturing requirements for single- point anchor device used for harness based work at height.
