INDUSTRIAL ROPE ACCESS TRADE ASSOCIATION

ATR Lifting Solutions are pleased to announce that they have now become a member of IRATA International (Industrial Rope Access Trade Association), recognised as the world’s leading authority on industrial rope access. It has over 300 member companies around the world and has trained in excess of 60,000 rope access technicians worldwide.

IRATA is the sole global trade association in the work-at-height sector. Industrial rope access has been developed by IRATA in the last 25 years to a point where it has been the chosen means of access for much of the work in the offshore oil and gas industry as well as a range of projects in construction, civil engineering, inspection and testing of structures to name a few.

The IRATA association has in place a continuously evolving regime of work procedures that members are required to follow and which are monitored for compliance to ensure that a safe system of work is established and maintained. This sets IRATA International member companies apart from rope access companies that are not subject to such a rigorous scheme.

By becoming a member of IRATA and in result of their success based on thorough training and strict work guidelines, this will fundamentally support ATR Group’s philosophy of delivering high quality services and performance, and also support our aims of continually improving our practices to achieve and maintain the highest of health & safety standards.

ATR Lifting Solutions are specialist providers of lifting and rigging services such as supply, testing, inspection, maintenance and management of equipment.
