However, the Loosen company was keen to assess the capabilities of their first sigeMAX concreting platform. The platform, weighing just under 50 kilograms, and designed to enable trouble-free concreting operations at the highest safety level, left nothing to be desired in Zündorf. What proved particularly noticeable was the ability to use the application universally, both on the cavity walls and on the ultraMAX L panel formwork. But Mayer would not be Mayer if they had not gone one step further. Thanks to the modifiable suspension heads, it is even possible to install the sigeMAX on any standard panel formwork system. “The concreting operations with the sigeMAX on the cavity walls and the ultraMAX L formwork we rented on top were quick, uncomplicated and extremely easy for our workers, compared to other supports and platforms, because the walkways are very wide and non-slip. The fact that we can also use the platforms in conjunction with our existing formwork when needed makes the whole thing even more remarkable” commented a visibly satisfied Guido Loosen, evidently positively surprised by the flexibility of the universally applicable concreting platforms from Lower Franconia. As is currently often the case on many construction sites, there was little storage space on the area surrounding the construction site in this part of Cologne by the Rhine. But that particular scenario is not one that poses major problems for the sigeMAX products. Thanks to the drop-in guard rails all being identical – so, on the one hand, they do not have to be sorted and can therefore be stacked as they come and, on the other hand, they allow the platform to be configured individually – the local specialists did not have to worry about complex assembly procedures or individual parts that could be lost. Straight off the stacking pallet, all the components were able to be installed immediately and the platform was ready for its première, which was followed by many more days of use and produced a large number of satisfied smiles.
