Anybody using them new plastic f boards and are they any good?
 
it used to be POLES to which i would reply The Popes a Pole
back to the plastic boards,i have used them about 8 years ago i have to be honest i didnt really like them.We only ever used them for temp roofs for ships to get blasted and painted.
they get very brittle with sunlight exposure too quick in my honest opinion;)
 
I been emailed a few times regards them plastic boards and to be honest they sound like a good investment but at more then twice the price of timber I ain't convinced they are value for money .
I did intend to buy 100 last season and see how they went but never got around to it ,
Maybe I will this year :wondering:
 
How pissed you gonna be when your lads notch one round a standard or other trades nick a few.......good idea " maybe ", but expensive .

yall need to buy some more rabbits plastic boards tend to be thicker than wooden yans marra
 
Every time I think about spending a few quid to try and improve and perhaps make things easier and make us look a bit more professional I soon realise that in this poxy business I'd just be spunking my money up the wall again like I have so many times before. ..
 
That's the nature of the beast mate ,
Iam constantly looking for things to make life easier and safer for my lads ,
And all they do is break or loose new tools or moan about trying new things,
You will never win moanalot lol
 
Price cut for plastic scaffold boards

Manufacturing developments have enabled Tilon Composites to cut the price of its Supadek scaffold boards by more than a third, the company has announced.

Tilon Composites said that the installation of a new plastics recycling line at its South Wales facility has given it greater control over the cost and supply of the raw materials used in the production of Supadek.

Coupled with changes to operational procedures and distribution of the product, total price reductions of at least 33% for the plastic scaffold boards have been made possible.

Other Tilon fibre reinforced polymer composite products include noise barriers, composite decking, industrial partitioning and safety barriers.

Tilon managing director Stephen O’Leary said: “Our experience and knowledge in the manufacture of fibre reinforced polymer composites from recycled plastics has grown immeasurably in the 10 years since Supadek was launched. This enhanced expertise has seen our turnover increase six or seven-fold during that time and has enabled us to identify areas in which efficiencies can be made.

“Our latest improvements have targeted manufacturing and operations, and have resulted in much lower costs of production without making any alterations to the product. The efficiencies mean that we are now able to offer the market the same product at a vastly improved price as well as facilitating a more transparent pricing structure. Customers should see savings of at least 33%.”

They slide like ice skates on the trannies with the snow and rain
 
We have a few in stock, They are nice to work with but they fill with water on the in side and double in weight until you stand them up and let it drain out for 10 mins.
We got them for inside work only and they are spot on. No splitters No warping No cutting of them lol..
