AND FALL ARREST SPECIALISTS

Barton Industrial Services, a family firm founded in 1986, operates from a modern 12,000 sq. ft. factory in Whiteabbey, just outside Belfast, Northern Ireland. It provides a comprehensive service in all matters relating to lifting gear, fall arrest systems and access equipment. It has established its market presence through quality agencies, a focus on safety and heavy investment in manufacturing facilities.

LIFTING BY SERVICE

The company specialises in providing sales, manufacturing, testing and service facilities for lifting equipment. It stands out from its competitors in its manufacturing ability. Over 6,000 sq. ft. of the factory is dedicated to the fabrication of cranes, gantries and lifting frames and includes modern cutting, welding and burning equipment. Extensive design and manufacturing projects are undertaken for the local aerospace company Bombardier, the electrical generator manufacturer F. G. Wilson and the shipyard Harland & Wolff.

The remainder of the factory consists of light assembly facilities, producing such items as wire rope slings, webbing slings, chain slings and other lifting tackle. Facilities include a Talurit machine for pressing wire ropes, a 50 tonne testing machine plus equipment for electrical and hydraulic work.

SAFETY BY DESIGN

We have built up a substantial reputation in the field of access and fall arrest safety systems. The company is the sole approved designer and installer in Ireland for Cradle Runways and Latchways Fall Arrest Systems.

Since the mid-eighties Latchways have revolutionised the field of horizontal lifeline systems (Mansafe), vertical lifeline systems (Climblatch) and detachable safety eyebolt mechanisms (Pushlock).

Barton Industrial Services prides itself on providing clients with the services of their in-house Chartered Engineering staff and expert advice on all methods of fixing systems to building structures and any type of exposed areas.
