The World’s First Mobile Fall Arrest Roof / Man Anchor Filled with Water
The ecoAnchor is a totally unique concept in fall protection and uses renewable resources for both manufacture and installation. Due to the massive weight saving for transportation it can also reduce the carbon footprint. The anchor is constructed of a special natural rubber material that holds the bag in a solid cube form when filled with water.
The ecoAnchor is compatible with a large variety of roof surfaces including composite and mineral felts. It has been tested to exceed the EN795 class E standard and is suitable for use on pitched roofs of up to 15 degrees. It is also compatible for use with our temporary life line systems . This will allow spans of up to 25m by linking two ecoAnchors together to create a 2D system simply and quickly.
When collapsed, the ecoAnchor weighs just 8kg, fitting in a small bag(bag not included), and avoiding the need to transport, or carry, heavy weights to the top of a building prior to installation.
