AT-PAC has released further details of its Raised Ledger System after the product was named Product of the Year at the 2026 Scaffolding Excellence Awards.

The award was presented during ScaffEx26 in Manchester, where contractors, manufacturers and access professionals gathered for the industry event.

The Raised Ledger System is designed to create large, flush working platforms within Ringlock scaffolding.

It works by positioning the main ledger 200mm above the standard connection point, removing the protrusions normally found on conventional scaffold decks. AT-PAC says this creates a more continuous working surface and reduces trip hazards across larger platform areas.

Aimed at larger working platforms

The manufacturer says the system is suited to applications where worker movement and material handling are important, including industrial maintenance projects, suspended work platforms, birdcage scaffolds and event structures.

AT-PAC says the system can be used with existing Ringlock components, limiting the amount of extra equipment contractors need to add to their stock.

Other claimed benefits include continuous guardrail arrangements around the platform perimeter, faster assembly and dismantling compared with traditional timber platform solutions, and less reliance on temporary platform modifications.

David Clark, AT-PAC Head of Product Management, said: “Receiving this award is an incredible achievement for our team and recognition of how we continuously look for better solutions to real challenges.”

He added: “The Raised Ledger System was developed to solve a challenge faced by scaffolding professionals every day. By rethinking how scaffold platforms can be designed and installed, we combined enhanced safety, faster installation, and seamless Ringlock compatibility to create a solution that delivers measurable value for contractors, scaffold crews, and project owners alike.”

AT-PAC says the system requires only a small number of dedicated components alongside existing Ringlock equipment.
