For the “L’Arc de Triomphe Wrapped” project, the Christo team and Les Charpentiers de Paris chose Tractel by Scanclimber to design and supply a number of access platforms. These were specially adapted for the installation of the structures that support the covering fabric under the vault of the Arc de Triomphe.
Around Heidelberg Europlatz main building, Zech had twelve Scanclimber SC8000 mast climbers with glide rails helping in a demanding window and facade element installation. The Zech installers fixed the elements from the mast climbers and used the glide rails to position the heavy window elements accurately.
IPAF has awarded Scanclimber® by Tractel® multiple times because of its industry-leading in rack and pinion-based vertical access solutions.
