SVC Temporary Covers are a convenient and essential OHS product for any civil construction project. They are designed to solve the critical problem of concealing open pits, manholes, and trenches during construction, protecting workers and any passers-by from potential falling or tripping hazards.
Used extensively in new subdivision construction and road reinstatement works, these covers prevent personnel, equipment, and debris from dropping into open excavations before the final surface levels are completed. Robustly built in a high-visibility colour, Temporary Covers are an optimal non-permanent safety implement to cover exposed openings, offering many more benefits than unsafe alternatives such as flat timber boards (which are commonly used on many construction sites).
SVC’s Temporary Covers feature a tapered edge design that reduces tripping, combined with a raised surface pattern that provides slip resistance. Their light weight allows them to be easily transported between site and storage yards where they can be reused on new projects, making them a cost-effective and indispensable component of any site safety plan.
