Each HERMEQ staging board features a premium birch-ply core and anti-slip mesh-coated surface. The marine-grade treatment protects against delamination and water ingress, even in wet UK site conditions. Aluminium bearers are crimped for strength, spaced every 290mm to support uniform load distribution across the platform.
Fitted with non-slip inserts on the underside, the board maintains grip on steel or timber supports. It is ideal for elevated access work where ladders aren’t practical or platform space is required. These boards are regularly used in roofline works, bricklaying setups, internal fitouts, and plant access builds.
Choose from multiple length and width combinations to match your trestle system. Whether bridging over uneven terrain or fitting into scaffold lift levels, the HERMEQ Youngman board delivers performance, longevity, and reliable safety. For a ready-to-go system, pair with builders trestles or platform kits.
Manufactured in the UK, each board is backed by quality standards and delivered with confidence by HERMEQ’s B2B access equipment team.
