Fiberglass Scaffolding Systems
Non-Conductive and Spark-Resistant Solutions for High-Risk Environments
Safety is the priority in electrical zones and volatile industrial environments. APM System provides specialized fiberglass scaffolding designed specifically for "Zone 1" areas where metallic scaffolding poses a conductivity or spark hazard. Our systems are non-conductive, corrosion-resistant, and engineered to provide stable, secure access in chemical plants, power stations, and sensitive industrial sites.
Fiberglass Scaffolding
Fiberglass
– Anti-sparks: This type of scaffolding does not give off “sparks” which makes it very safe to use in those areas where there is dust, steam or other combustible suspended particles.
– Zona 1 areas are those in which an explosive atmosphere (ATEX) may occur in normal working conditions. For jobs of production and maintenance in those areas it is advisable to use this type of scaffolding.
– Non-conductive: The scaffold is non-conductive of electrical current which makes it very safe to use in electrical installations to perform repairing, inspection and maintenance jobs.
– Resistant to corrosion: Plastic reinforced with fiberglass is a material resistant to corrosion generated by salt water and to the majority of chemical agents such as fuel, oils, lacquer and most solvents.
– Stainless steel: Unlike metallic materials, plastic which has been reinforced with fiberglass does not oxidize.

Engineered for Maximum Safety in ATEX & Electrical Zones
Our fiberglass (GRP) scaffolding is the industry choice for specialized maintenance where aluminum or steel is restricted.
- Anti-Spark & ATEX Compliance: This system does not produce sparks, making it essential for Zone 1 areas—environments where explosive atmospheres (dust, steam, or combustible particles) may occur during normal working conditions.
- Total Non-Conductivity: Unlike metal, this scaffold does not conduct electrical current. It is the gold standard for inspection and repair jobs on high-voltage electrical installations.
- Superior Corrosion Resistance: Reinforced with high-grade fiberglass, this material is immune to salt-water corrosion and resistant to aggressive chemical agents, including fuels, oils, lacquers, and solvents.
- Zero Oxidation: Because it contains no metallic components, our fiberglass systems do not oxidize or rust, ensuring a longer equipment lifespan in harsh maritime or chemical environments.
