D-marc™ is a type of Collective Demarcation Protection that’s we’ve developed in accordance with the Health and Safety Executive’s (HSE) hierarchy of risk management as set out in the Working at Heights Regulations 2005 (WAHR).  When working at height, safety is an important issue and a roof demarcation system ensures that all roof-based work can be undertaken in a safe and secure environment.

Any commercial premises that requires plant maintenance or regular roof access will need to adhere to all working at height health and safety regulations.  This means that anybody expected to access and work on the roof of your building will need to be either connected to a safety line at all times or you’ll need to install  a permanent demarcation barrier around all accessible areas of the roof.  If you install access ladders, you’ll need to ensure that any vertical access points have the necessary caging to protect against falls from height.
