Regulations and Standards

We actively participate in the committees that help to shape the standards and pride ourselves in fully understanding AS/NZS standards, workplace regulations and how these apply to the workforce in general. The new AS/NZS 1891.1 2007 standard is no exception and pertains to new performance requirements for fall protection equipment and will affect the decisions made about the equipment used in some working environments. Our harnesses, which are manufactured in our Braeside factory in Victoria, meet the requirements of the Australian and New Zealand standards. The following Australian and New Zealand standards are recommended reading references:
