BIBO system

The BIBO fall arrest system is a permanent fall arrest system for working on flat roofs. The basis of the system is the BIBO block, a 192kg concrete slab, sized 900mm x 900mm x 110mm, with an embedded 12mm thick stainless steel ring.

The slab has four integral rubber carriers which may be provided with bituminous adhesive pads, on which the slab is placed on the roof, preventing the roof covering from being penetrated.

The multifunctional BIBO can be used to install different fall arrest facilities on the roof. BSC delivers the system complete with personal safety equipment such as lanyards and safety harnesses.

The latest safety requirements have been considered during the extensive development and testing of the BIBO fall arrest system. The entire system meets the applicable occupational health and safety rules and the BS EN 795 standard.

Carrying out works on roofs can be quite a costly affair. Expensive safety measures in the form of temporary fencing or cherry pickers have to be implemented for every individual job. Investing in the BIBO fall arrest system will save money in the long run as the system can be removed and reinstalled after reroofing works.

The BIBO fall arrest system can be installed on virtually all roof covering systems.

There is no need to penetrate the roof covering to install the BIBO fall arrest system. This avoids an increased risk of leaks, additional maintenance and unnecessarily accessing the roof.

The BIBO fall arrest system can be installed on the roof rapidly, easily and quietly. The BIBO fall arrest system will last for at least the lifetime of the building onto which it is installed. Following renovation the BIBO fall arrest system can be re-used.

The same BIBO block can be used in all of the above occasions.
