Ball proof Ø20mm: JK Technic grating compliance

In certain industrial installations, operator safety imposes strict requirements for technical floors and walkways.

Standard NF EN ISO 14122-2 specifies in particular that decking located above work areas must prevent the passage of a 20mm diameter sphere, in order to protect persons working below. 

This requirement applies to many industrial environments: production platforms, technical walkways, energy installations and chemical sites.

An essential regulatory requirement for safety

The purpose of this rule is to reduce the risk of falling objects that could cause accidents for operators working at a lower level.

It applies in addition to the general requirements for permanent means of access to machinery, particularly with regard to strength, stability and safe use.

JK Technic gratings meet the Ø20mm ball proof requirement

 

Elevated walkway with Ø20mm ball proof grating for enhanced safety for personnel below

Designed to the most demanding industrial standards, JK Technic gratings meet the Ø20mm ball proof requirement for reliable, confidence-inspiring performance.

Thanks to our expertise, we adapt grating configurations (mesh, dimensions, design) to guarantee compliance whenever the technical constraints of a project require it.

Our industrial gratings combine safety, performance and compliance:

• Enhanced safety for work areas located below
• Compliance with the regulatory requirements for industrial walkways and platforms
• Wide choice of materials: galvanized steel, stainless steel, aluminium or FRP
• Custom-made design to suit project constraints
• Simple or double serrated surface to ensure enhanced anti-slip safety
