The National Access & Scaffolding Confederation (NASC) has taken a significant step towards strengthening its global presence through a newly signed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Malaysian Occupational Scaffolding Association (MOSA).

The landmark agreement was formalised following the NASC’s Annual General Meeting in Belfast, marking a key milestone in international collaboration for the scaffolding industry.

The MOU reflects the close ties between the two organisations, both renowned for their leadership and commitment to advancing scaffolding standards.

The partnership aims to promote mutual expertise, share resources, and champion best practices in scaffolding, access, and rigging.

Speaking about the agreement, NASC CEO Clive Dickin highlighted its potential to drive innovation and elevate industry standards worldwide. “This partnership with MOSA, like our other MOUs, fosters a harmonious exchange of expertise and resources. It is a testament to both organisations’ shared vision of advancing the scaffolding industry to new heights.”

The agreement outlines plans for joint initiatives to improve safety, enhance training opportunities, and boost global recognition of industry standards. The collaboration aligns with NASC’s reputation as a pioneer in scaffolding standard-setting and MOSA’s respected position as a leader in Malaysia.

This is the latest in a series of international agreements signed by NASC over the past year, underscoring its commitment to global cooperation and the development of the scaffolding profession.

The signing marks the beginning of a new chapter for the scaffolding sector, as NASC and MOSA work together to shape a safer, more efficient, and innovative future.

Both organisations are inviting stakeholders and industry professionals to join their efforts in elevating the global scaffolding industry.

This agreement not only enhances the connection between two prominent scaffolding bodies but also highlights the importance of international partnerships in achieving progress and excellence in scaffolding.
