I have seen two types of safety netting for scaffold walkways Plastic rigid netting - fairly wide open mesh Knitted green scaffold netting - the sort of weave that you might see used elsewhere as a fisherman's keep net. I am not talking about pure fall protection netting. I need to install one or the other, and perhaps both. In my wanderings round West Lancashire now, I almost always stop and examine scaffolding wherever it is visible from the roadside. (I'm calling it CPD). I used to do the same before I bought a digger: stop and look at it closely. Mostly I see the wide-aperture plastic semi-rigid, board-like netting zip-tied to the ledgers. The sort that could, just about, stop my hammer from falling if it comes out of its scabbard. I'd prefer to buy the green knitted type netting because it 'feels' safer. Far less likely to allow small bits and bobs to fall off the scaffold. Thoughts?
