When you need a fast way to show a scaffold has been inspected and is safe to use, scaff tags give you a clear visual record on site. Altrad Generation Scaff Tags let you display inspection dates, load ratings, and other safety information directly on the structure, so anyone on site can see the current status at a glance. They comply with the Safety Signs and Signals Regulations, giving you a recognised standard for site safety signage, and sit within Altrad Generation's wider Scaffold Ancillaries range.
You can attach the scafftag holders to a scaffold in the way that suits your site, through the porthole, locked in with a scaffold clip, or secured with a pull tie. Each holder is weatherproof and UV protected, so the tag stays legible outdoors through changing weather. Altrad Generation offers Scaff Tags in standard and alloy options, giving you a choice that suits the equipment already on site.
Every pack of Scaff Tags includes 20 scafftag inserts and 2 pens, so you have what you need to record and update inspection information as work progresses. If you use up your inserts, Altrad Generation also supplies Aluminium Scafftag Inserts on their own, so you can restock without buying a full holder pack again.
