Safety Nets NZ Completes Specialised Netting Installation for NZ Defence Force

At Safety Nets NZ, we pride ourselves on being New Zealand’s most experienced and trusted safety netting provider. Our latest project at Ohakea Airbase for the NZ Defence Force highlights not only the scale of our expertise but also the flexibility of what we can deliver.

Protecting Helicopter Operations

The NZ Defence Force required a specialised safety solution for the helicopter landing pad at Ohakea. The project called for the installation of safety nets around elevated walkways and access structures to provide maximum protection for personnel and equipment in a high-risk environment.

Using our engineered netting systems, we were able to design and install a tailored solution that integrates seamlessly with the surrounding steel framework and access platforms. The nets provide an additional layer of fall protection while ensuring the structure remains fully functional for day-to-day operations.

Showcasing Flexibility and Expertise

While the majority of our work involves fall protection for construction and industrial projects, this installation demonstrates how our systems can be adapted to suit specialised environments such as defence facilities, sports complexes, schools, and commercial properties.

From helicopter landing pads to gymnasium ceiling protection, Safety Nets NZ has the resources, experience, and innovation to deliver safe, reliable, and fully certified systems across a wide range of industries.
