Layher has received the PLUS X AWARD’s Best Brand of the Year 2026 title in the scaffolding systems category.

The German scaffolding systems manufacturer, based in Güglingen-Eibensbach, was recognised by the award jury for its technical development, engineering and system-based approach to scaffold construction.

The jury said Layher had combined “engineering skills, innovative strength and system intelligence” while setting international standards for the industry.

The award adds to Layher’s long-standing position in the global scaffolding market, where its systems are widely used across construction, infrastructure, industrial maintenance and access projects.

Layher Managing Director Wolf Christian Behrbohm said the company was pleased to receive the recognition.

“We are delighted by this accolade,” he said. “It encourages us in our efforts to make scaffolding construction easier, faster and safer.

“Our focus is on the people who use our products in tough day-to-day work at construction sites. Our goal is to help them achieve more in terms of efficiency and safety, and make their working lives both easier and more profitable.”

Layher said the award reflects its focus on system intelligence, where new product development is designed to work with existing material stocks and remain usable as standards and regulations change.

Sales Director Andreas Beck said this was a core part of the company’s approach.

“With Layher innovations, our customers set the standards on the market, with maximum safety for their investments in material stocks,” he said.

“And that’s regardless of how often standards or regulations change. The benefits of the Integrated Layher System still remain.”

The PLUS X AWARD describes its Best Brand of the Year title as a recognition given to brands that achieve the highest number of approval seals in their product group during the year.

For Layher, the award will support its wider brand message of “More Performance. More Possibilities. More Value. With Layher.”
