Rope Access Techniques have been around for 15 years and have become a major success.

The reason for this success is simple, it's extremely safe, cost effective and very efficient, compared with traditional access methods such as scaffolding. Also the time it takes to put together is usually minutes unlike the traditional methods which often take hours or days.

The equipment is very lightweight and portable which makes it easier to reach those awkward places, which would be impossible to get to using other access methods.
