PERI has been named winner of the Product of the Year award at the Scaffolding Excellence Awards, hosted by the NASC in Belfast.
The company received the accolade for its PERI UP Cladding system, which has been recognised for its innovation and versatility since its launch in the UK earlier this year.
PERI competed against two other finalists in the category, with judges praising the cladding system’s design and its potential to transform scaffolding practices.
The PERI UP Cladding system has been widely adopted for its flexibility, serving as a protective enclosure, temporary roofing system, and hoarding for building sites.
Its lightweight panels, fast assembly process, and adaptability have made it popular among contractors, while its safety features, including dust and noise containment, have been welcomed by those working in public-facing projects.
A Standout Exhibit at ScaffEx24
PERI’s success at the awards coincided with a strong showing at ScaffEx24, the NASC’s first-ever conference and exhibition.
The company’s 24-square-metre stand, which was one of the largest at the event, showcased a range of products, including the award-winning PERI UP Cladding system. The display featured a custom-built viewing deck, allowing attendees to experience the system up close.
Charles Stratford, Business Development Manager for PERI UP, described the event as a major success.
“ScaffEx24 was a fantastic opportunity to reconnect with colleagues and showcase the capabilities of our scaffolding systems. Winning Product of the Year was a highlight and reinforces the benefits our cladding system offers to the industry.”
Enhancing Safety and Efficiency
The PERI UP Cladding system is designed to improve safety for scaffolders, contractors, and the public. It helps reduce the risks associated with falling debris and dust pollution while containing noise from construction sites.
Its seamless integration with PERI scaffolding systems has made it a valuable addition to construction and public event projects across the UK.
The Product of the Year award highlights PERI’s commitment to innovation in the scaffolding sector.
“Our system provides scaffolding contractors with more choices, increased efficiency, and unparalleled adaptability. It’s an honour to be recognised for these contributions,” Stratford added.
