How does the inflatable gap filler enhance the safety of operators in their working areas ?

On construction sites and in industrial environments, managing empty spaces between structures is a major safety concern. These spaces, known as “gaps,” can lead to falls, injuries, or tool loss. The Pronal inflatable gap filler provides a simple, flexible, and safe solution to eliminate these risks by temporarily or permanently filling the voids between two surfaces.

What is an inflatable gap filler ?

The inflatable gap filler is a flexible device made from durable technical materials. Once inflated with compressed air, it connects two structures to create a secure surface, eliminating any risk associated with empty spaces.

Easy to install, lightweight, and compact, it adapts to the geometry of the site without affecting existing installations.

Some models can be equipped with a pneumatic control box, pressure sensors, or a safety alarm, ensuring constant protection even in the most demanding environments.

Using the inflatable gap filler on scaffolding

On construction sites, scaffolding is a high-risk area where small voids can cause serious falls.
The Pronal inflatable gap filler bridges these gaps to create a secure, non-slip surface between two platforms, between the structure and the façade, or between different levels.

Its flexibility allows it to adapt to the configuration of the site, even in the presence of corners or irregularities.
Its quick installation reduces intervention times and facilitates operator movement. Lightweight yet robust, it does not overload the structure while ensuring enhanced day-to-day safety.
Regular checks of pressure and fastenings guarantee long-lasting use in full compliance with safety standards.

Pronal inflatable gap filler for loading dock and trailer

In the logistics sector, the gap between a loading dock and a trailer varies depending on the type of vehicle, its height, or positioning. This space, often small but dangerous, can cause falls or equipment imbalance.

The Pronal inflatable gap filler effectively compensates for the space between the loading dock and the truck. It adapts to height variations between the dock and the trailer. Designed to improve safety and ease of operation, this device is not intended for use with heavy handling equipment such as forklifts.

This system improves loading and unloading flow, reduces the risk of accidents, and enhances operator comfort. Its strength and durability make it a modern alternative to rigid ramps or bridges, suitable for both temporary and permanent use.

A tailor-made solution for industrial safety

Each Pronal inflatable gap filler is custom-designed according to the site’s dimensions, load requirements, and specific constraints.
Our sales team, in collaboration with the Pronal design office, supports each client from design to commissioning, ensuring safety, reliability, and compliance.

An innovative, durable, and tailor-made solution to effectively protect operators in all work areas.
