Innovations: The Tube Monkey

Introducing a new timesaving device for the laborious job of sheeting a scaffold.. Say hello to The Tube Monkey !  

The Tube Monkey was conceived and designed by a scaffolder who recognised the inherent dangers and safety issues involved with the traditional methods of erecting scaffold sheeting.

The Tube Monkey is created by a two-piece system that fits onto the outside of scaffolding structure using double coupler fittings. The device then allows a roll of plastic sheeting to be attached and then pulled across each lift from the inside

The Tube Monkey is operated by only one operative from the inside of the lift. This ensures safety and simplicity. Safety to the public is also minimised further. Secondly, by only needing one person to install scaffold sheeting and being quicker than traditional methods, it decreases costs twofold; less labour is needed and less time is taken.

The Tube Monkey is available to buy direct from the Developer at £295 inclusive of VAT and delivery but Affordable Facilities Ltd have promotional offers so if you want to try out The Tube Monkey for yourself visit: http://www.affordable-facilities.co.uk/The-Tube-Monkey or contact Anna Piechocki on 020 871 3145 to arrange purchase and delivery direct to your site.
