Yesterday marked the conclusion of the initial pilot test of ScaffSense, the world's first sensor-based stability alarm system for scaffolding. The pilot test went according to plan and with very positive results. ScaffSense AB, a joint venture between Kebni and Solideq Group, is now preparing for additional commercialization tests.

Sydställningar AB, one of Sweden's leading scaffolding installers, was the official partner for the pilot test.

”Safe scaffolding is Sydställningar’s top priority, so partnering with ScaffSense to facilitate their pilot test was an easy decision. From what we’ve seen, ScaffSense might very well be a game-changer for the entire scaffolding industry. We are proud to be part of the movement and looking forward to continuing our collaboration with ScaffSense.” Says Jonas Möllerbro, CEO at Sydställningar.

“From an owner perspective we have now passed an important gateway and are ready for the next step.” Says Torbjörn Saxmo, CEO at Kebni and Chairman of ScaffSense. Tobias Wreje-Larsson, CEO at ScaffSense, adds:
“We are thrilled to confirm ScaffSense’s functionality and viability through this successful pilot. We are excited to move forward, getting the product ready to set a new standard for safety in the global scaffolding industry.”

Unsafe and collapsing scaffolding is a global problem that causes injuries, fatalities, and billions of dollars in costs for the construction industry every year. ScaffSense is a patent-pending alarm system that uses smart sensors to monitor the stability of the scaffolding in real time, preventing accidents and costly construction stops.
