GRIPPS® is the global leader in innovative and practical tool tethering and engineered drop prevention solutions for the construction industry.
Dropped and falling object risks at construction sites are a significant safety concern, given the dynamic nature of the work and the variety of activities that occur simultaneously. Dropped or falling objects can pose a hazard to both bystanders and construction workers wearing the appropriate protective gear.
Items with enough weight or falling from an especially high area have enough momentum to cause concussions, neck injuries, head injuries or death, even if wearing a hard hat.
This includes hand tools, construction materials like bricks and steel beams, and personal items like mobile phones, all of which can pose risks if dropped or falling from scaffolding, cranes, or other elevated work areas.
To prevent any incidents, a safety risk assessment must be conducted to evaluate the job environment, identify potential dynamic dropped objects and the appropriate drop prevention solution(s).
We have years of experience and some of the most reliable tools in the game. Our clients include oil & gas, utilities & power generation, mining and beyond. View our range of engineered drop prevention solutions including tool tethers, drop mats and more, or contact us today.
