As part of a refurbishment
programme, contractor MPM
Northwest has been appointed to
remove decades of paint, rust and
debris from the Blackpool Tower
before repainting it. To prevent
falling debris during this extensive
renovation, MPM Northwest turned
to safety at height solutions
provider, Combisafe International.

An adaptable protective net
system was needed to ensure any
paint, debris or dropped equipment
would be contained when working
at height. The chosen system also
needed to be easy to install and
efficiently moved as work progressed
down the tower. To meet these
requirements, Combisafe provided
its Safety Net Fans.
