Our Scan & Control mechanism

Mandatory periodic audits and traceability by SCAN & CONTROL mechanism

When operating, each lifting or personal protective equipment must be checked at least once a year.

What do you risk not having your equipment checked?

Avoiding the audit of your equipment is risking…

• The accident: using equipment that may be dangerous for the operators.
• Stopping the construction site: and therefore, incurring financial losses.
• A ban on using the material.
• Legal proceedings: due to non-compliance with regulations.
