Our Services

Confined Spaces

According to the Health and Safety Commission, Confined Spaces are described as including
“…any place, including any chamber, tank, vat, silo, pit, trench, pipe, sewer, flue, well or Difficult access? no problem! similar space which, by virtue of its enclosed nature, there arises a reasonably foreseeable specified risk”.

Skytek can provide specialist personnel with confined spaces qualifications and experience, breathing apparatus (either for emergency or operational use), and the necessary skills to perform the allotted task.
