KOMBI Modular Aluminium Access Stairs & Crossovers

The KOMBI® Secret

Installing access stairs and crossovers in industrial facilities situated in remote locations has been problematic for many years. High freight costs and the expense of travelling to and from site is just the start. Add to that the need to employ specialist trades to carry out the installation and the list goes on and on ...

There had to be a better way!

KOMBI components, manufactured from lightweight aluminium, are delivered flat pack to site, offering substantial savings in delivery costs. Specialist trades are a thing of the past too, as KOMBI Access Stair and Platform Systems can be installed by your workers on-site.

Build your own or send through a request to our KOMBI Customer Service Team - it's that simple!
