Access engineered for hydrocarbon environments.

Lighter to lift, built for turnaround windows.

Refinery Access Constraints

Conventional scaffold systems are fundamentally unsuited for the high-consequence environments of modern refineries. The conductive nature of steel creates a significant risk multiplier in live environments, while the heavy weight of steel ringlock systems slows down the erection process and increases manual-handling risk.

In a turnaround, weight is schedule. The Taurus Transom™ carries a steel-class load rating at roughly half the weight of steel (component weigh-in basis, 30 June 2026), which compounds across thousands of components into fewer crane lifts and less manual handling inside a fixed window. We model the saving for your configuration before mobilisation.

Refinery Access

The system's hybrid aluminium and structural polymer construction, with polymer joint isolation protected by an international patent family, gives it reduced conductivity engineered in as a design characteristic, relevant wherever access is built around energised plant. A formal validation program is underway. Lighter components also mean less manual handling at height, one of the persistent injury drivers in turnaround work.

Technical Proof

Reduced conductivity

Engineered into the Taurus Transom™ as a design characteristic, not added as an accessory.

Weight Reduction

Roughly half the weight of comparable steel systems (component weigh-in basis, 30 June 2026), comparable in weight to premium aluminium.

Structural Integrity

Rated heavy duty at 6.6 kN (675 kg) per bay, per working platform level under AS/NZS 1576.1. Hybrid aluminium and structural polymer construction.
