People should not get sick from standing in the rain, cold and draughts, because standing with a cold back is harmful in both the short and long term, and it can affect how long you can continue to work before retirement, he says.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21895\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21895\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21895\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.as\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Dagens-Byggeri-kampagne-sep-2022-2-1200x900-1-1024x768-1.jpg\" alt=\"Many customers also choose a summer version of the covering, as it provides shade for workers and materials from the strong rays of the sun, among other things.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21895\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Many customers also choose a summer version of the cover, as it shields construction workers and materials from the sun\u2019s strong UV rays, among other things.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>At the same time, the fact that construction companies have become busier all year round plays a role in the growing demand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Now, practically all construction workers work all year round, whereas previously there was a big drop in activity in the construction industry during the winter. This is no longer the case, and one of the reasons for this is the cover, says Clemen Ditlevsen. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Dry weather all year round ensures production<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Last winter, Platform.as invested heavily in more equipment to <a href=\"https:\/\/platform.as\/inddaekning-af-arbejdsplatform\/\">cover the mobile mast climbers<\/a> in order to keep up with demand from companies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; More and more people want covered mast climbers because it is a super-good product. Primarily because of the working environment, as construction workers can work in dry weather while also keeping their materials and tools dry. But it also means a lot to a project that the covering can help production going in practically any weather. So I am not surprised that demand is increasing, but at Platform.as we are most excited about it because it helps to significantly improve workplace conditions, says Casper Knudsen, CEO of Platform.as.   <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The tailor-made cover is adapted to the individual platform solution by means of special hangers that are mounted on the mast climber. A special foil is pulled over the hangers and attached to battens, after which the foil is heated with a heat blower to make it firm. This means it does not bother construction workers, residents or others by hanging loose and resulting in very loud, annoying noises, says the CEO.  <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21896\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21896\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21896\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.as\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Dagens-Byggeri-kampagne-sep-2022-3-1200x900-1-1024x768-1.jpg\" alt=\"Covered work platforms provide tradespeople with plenty of work space at height and, not least, in dry weather.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21896\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Covered mast climbing work platforms give construction workers plenty of working space at height &#8211; and under dry conditions.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Optimal working height spares construction workers\u2019 backs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At the same time, he points out that the <a href=\"https:\/\/platform.as\/#platforme\">mobile mast climbers also have other qualities in terms of health and safety<\/a> that make many companies prefer this solution.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The construction workers themselves steer a mast climbing work platform up to the optimal working height for the work to be done on the facade. It is also possible to install a 50 centimetre recessed platform facing the building, also known as a mason\u2019s console, where the masons stand while carrying out their work. This avoids the many tedious bends for the construction workers, as the materials are placed up on the deck of the platform, the CEO explains.  <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; It is also a significant benefit to the work environment that construction workers do not have to lug or hoist tools and materials, such as mortar, bricks, wood and insulation material. Everything is loaded onto the platform once i i\u2019s lowered, and then driven up and down with the construction workers, says CEO Casper Knudsen.  <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21897\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21897\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-21897\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.as\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Dagens-Byggeri-kampagne-sep-2022-4-1200x900-1-1024x768-1.jpg\" alt=\"A mason's bracket is characterized by masons standing on a recessed platform while they work.
