Stadium safety kicks off

Uniline was part of the winning team that helped create Durban's Mabhida Stadium, which was purpose built for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. This large scale, complex project provided plenty of opportunity for Uniline Safety Systems to offer fall protection system design advice and solutions to its approved installer, Specialized Access Services (SAS).

The complex stadium design required special interface brackets to mount the fall protection system, which Uniline was able to design, ensuring a high level of functionality and performance. A visitor viewing platform on the stadium's centre arch was fitted with Uniline's fall arrest system, while the company's Uni-16 system provides safe access for multiple maintenance personnel working on the compression and tension rings around the stadium.

Four EasyClimber systems were also installed for safe vertical access on ladders.
