The Layher LIGHTWEIGHT PHILOSOPHY

OUR OVERRIDING PRIORITY IS OUR CUSTOMERS' SUCCESS

To make scaffolding even more economical and even safer, Layher development engineers are constantly working on ingenious new developments. Our focus here is on the influencing factors for assembly performance, such as weight, shape and the number of components. To achieve this, we constantly search for new materials and new production processes. Just a few additional components also continuously provide our customers with new fields of business, since the utilisation of their material stocks is also a crucial economic factor. Thanks to uniform system dimensions and appropriate combination approvals, all our innovations are designed to be interchangeable with existing components of the Layher product portfolio – including our earlier product generations. This ensures investment security. The strengths of our integrated system.

THE RESULT: LAYHER LIGHTWEIGHT – THE NEXT DIMENSION IN SCAFFOLDING

Assembly, dismantling and transport make up 80 % of scaffolding service costs. Studies have clearly shown that by reducing component weight, our customers can considerably enhance both their assembly and dismantling performances and use their transport capacities more efficiently. This is where our new Layher Lightweight philosophy comes to the fore. By using higherstrength steel grades, new production processes and design improvements, we have succeeded in minimising the weight

of the basic components of our SpeedyScaf and Allround Scaffolding systems – without reducing their high load capacities. Assembly speed can be increased up to 10 %, transport capacity up to 12 %. As part of our integrated system, the lightweight products can also be combined with our previous product versions. Combination approvals are of course available.
