LAYHER IMPROVES SAFETY
AND PRODUCTIVITY IN PULP & PAPER
LAYHER IMPROVES SAFETY
AND PRODUCTIVITY IN PULP & PAPER
Many professionals working in the pulp and paper mill industry have traditionally seen scaffolding as a means to an end, something that has to be used to complete their project. Yet, an element that would not bring any added value to their project. Our job at Layher has been to show pulp and paper mill industry leaders just the opposite. That our product can help them in a variety of different ways.
REDUCED SHUTDOWN TIME WITH THE LAYHER ADVANTAGE
Whether you’re a manager, safety leader, engineer, or purchaser, the true cost of scaffolding includes indirect costs to productivity and other consequential expenses like extended downtime and potential threats to worker health and safety.
SIMPLE, VERSATILE, EASY-TO-HANDLE, SAFER, ADAPTABLE, AND TRANSPORTABLE
These are just some of the adjectives our loyal clients in the Pulp & Paper Industry have used to describe our scaffolding. They depict our world-class products and also indicate why our clients keep coming back. They continue to deploy scaffolding from Layher as we continue to improve an already world-class product.
SCAFFOLD SYSTEM SOLUTIONS
SAFER AND FLAT WORK PLATFORMS – OPTIMISED FOR THE JOB TO BE DONE
Since no plant is like another, scaffolding systems have to be flexible and adaptable. With Layher scaffolding, that’s no problem: Thanks to the option of laying the decks over the rosettes, a gap-free solution can be accomplished without additional expense or effort. For special cases specific to the site, we offer a comprehensive portfolio of expansion parts for achieving completely closed work surfaces within the system.
Solution-oriented components
- Special decks
- Penetrations with interchangeable ledgers
- Telescoping scaffolding decks
- Gap deck
- Steel gap cover
- Steel plank
ACCESS
Well-designed and correctly arranged accesses improve efficiency and also productivity at the site.
Solution-oriented components
- Internal ladder access
- Platform stairs
- Stairtowers 200
ROOFS & WALL SYSTEMS
The extensive Layher range of protective systems extends from compact weather protection roofs to wide-span roof solutions and enclosure systems which can be kept at a lower pressure.
Solution-oriented components
- Roof Systems
- Wall systems
SHORING
Shoring structures are an important factor in ensuring more safety and efficiency for in-site concreting work, particularly when building a new plant.
Solution-oriented components
- New plant construction with Allround Scaffolding
VESSELS
Closing the gaps in round equipment is often a challenge. Covering with steel or wood planks can be classified as a risk of tripping. In addition, these must be protected against unintentional lifting and slipping, which can cause problems depending on the type of soil used.
Solution-oriented components
- Flexible angle selection of Allround rosette
- Work surface adaptation for circular scaffolding
SUSPENDED SCAFFOLDING SOLUTIONS
When the work areas are very high up, standard scaffolding structures can often be uneconomical due to high material and labour costs. With Allround Scaffolding, suspended solutions can be achieved without any problem in such cases. Pull-resistant securing of the standards with hinged pins or by bolting them together allows forces to be optimally transmitted.
Solution-oriented components
- Suspended scaffolding structures
- Suspended scaffolding accessories
- Cantilevering and crane movability
Layher Suspended Scaffolding Solutions
CRANE MOVABILITY
The high fitting precision in the Layher system enables scaffolding structures to be preassembled on the ground, complete or in individual segments. Thanks to pull-resistant connection of all individual parts, they can be moved quickly and easily into position using a crane. This is a major advantage when it comes to efficiency and profitability. At the same time, safety during assembly increases many times over. Because the best fall protection is when there is no risk of falls in the first place.
Solution-oriented components
- Stairtowers
- Work Scaffolding
- Bridging
BRIDGING
Small spans are possible with Allround Scaffolding without the use of additional components, using standards, ledgers, and diagonal braces as a lattice structure.
Solution-oriented components
- Allround Scaffolding standard parts
- Lattice beams
- Aluminum FlexBeam
- Allround Bridging System
FIRE SAFETY, WOOD-FREE SOLUTIONS
Reduction of the fire risk is a requirement frequently expressed for scaffolding in refineries, chemical factories, and other fire-sensitive industrial plants. Components made of wood can be ruled out for obvious reasons. Layher has the optimum alternatives: system decks and matching toe boards made of steel or aluminum. Gap solutions made of steel, and scaffolding coverings made of low-inflammability tarpaulins or the Protect System, round off the range.
Solution-oriented components
- Steel deck LW
- Toeboards of steel and aluminum
- Steel plank

THE FUTURE OF SCAFFOLDING IN THE PULP & PAPER INDUSTRY IS DIGITAL — AND ITS NAME IS SIM
SIM or Scaffolding Information Modeling is a scaffolding design process based on 3D models. At Layher, we use it to meet the precise requirements of industrial scaffolding, including those used in pulp & paper. SIM helps us to plan, assemble, and strategically manage temporary scaffolding structures in the most efficient ways possible.
SIM allows you to:
- Plan your scaffolding in detail before it is being built
- Strategize and schedule your project with certainty and confidence
- Increase the safety and profitability of your project
- Provide transparency and cost control for its lifespan
- Budget, schedule, simulate the construction processes and conduct feasibility studies
- Assist in implementation, including assembly, approval, use, modification, and dismantling of any scaffolding project within a pulp & paper industry
- Verify structural loads
LAYPLAN SUITE – THE INTEGRATED SOFTWARE SOLUTION.
Time and material are crucial factors in scaffolding construction.
To make the most efficient use of both, the Layher range includes the practical scaffolding planning software LayPLAN.
