The workshop pit is a storage and work space that can be exposed to chemicals such as waste and hazardous products. To prevent the major risk of falls associated with pits, OTEXIO recommends high-strength support nets capable of bearing loads of several tens of kilograms. Compared to other traditional covering systems like tarps and rigid covers, our solutions offer numerous advantages. When choosing your protective net, consider the following factors.
