Safety Net Fans
APAC has developed APAC Safety Net Fans because of the results of a comprehensive study of the issues related to falling objects and workers and the risk of falling objects to workers or members of the public.
Unlike similar products, APAC Safety Net Fans have a special capacity to adjust to different building shapes, facades, and materials, in contrast to comparable items on the market. Additionally, it handles large wind loads well, especially in exposed and high-rise structures. The Safety Net Fan reduces the risk of injuries and possible lawsuits by safely containing falling objects and safeguarding property, the general public, and construction site workers.
APAC: Your Leading Safety Net Fans Supplier
APAC’s safety net fans are pre-assembled units that can be used in any structure and adapt to any shape. The system is available in two models: standard width and extra-wide, for the safe capture of objects and debris. Different sizes are available to perfectly adapt to your requirements and application system.
APAC Safety Net Fans address these risks on-site by absorbing falling energy and containing falling objects or people within the net. Safety net fans catch and secure falling objects to protect the public, site workers, vehicles, and other property.
The flexibility and resilience of the safety net fans system mean that if the net is impacted, it will form a collection pocket around the trapped object, reducing the impact of the fall and preventing it from falling outside the safety net fans system.

Safety Net Fan | A Complete FAQ Guide
1.What Is Safety Net Fan?
The safety net fan is a complete set of components that you can use to lessen the risk of falling hazards and ensure worker’s safety. The main feature is that you can assemble all the components into a single, complete unit before installation.
You can assemble the individual components on the ground or any area into a complete setup. Once you finish, you can use a crane system to lift and position the unit at the installation area. Due to the high adaptable features, you can quickly install them on different kinds of structures.

2.What Are The Benefits Of Safety Net Fans?
The demand for a safety net is increasing day by day due to the numerous benefits. Some of the common benefits are:
- Assembly of the unit is very easy. You can use very minimal tools to assemble the components.
- It takes a very short time to assemble the components.
- The creative design prevents the debris from falling and keeps the people safe below.
- The safety fan net comes with a complete set of components. You don’t need to buy additional components for its installation.
- You can pre-assemble the complete unit before installation. For assembly, you can choose other areas or the installation area itself.
- They are excellent to withstand high wind speeds. So, you don’t have to dismantle them in natural occurrences within limited wind velocity.
- You can quickly and easily dismantle it once you have completed your work in an area. For dismantling, you don’t have to open the individual components. Rather, you can open up as a whole unit. If you want to reuse it, you can reposition to another site or area as a whole unit.

6.How Does The Safety Net Fan Work?
The net fans are made in a creative design adaptable for modern application scopes. They are designed to efficiently catch the falling person and debris. When the falling object hits the safety nets, the net and frame system acts in an elastic nature to gradually expand towards below and create a pocket to entrap the materials.
This helps to increase the surface area to reduce the impact of the sudden fall. The net will bring the object or debris to a gradual stop. Due to these two factors, the force of impact will reduce, which will save the person. Moreover, the debris will not bounce off. When the falling debris gradually loses its falling energy, it will come to a stop within the pocket.
7.Are The Safety Net Fans UV Treated?
Yes, the safety net of the frame is UV treated. This helps to keep the safety netting protected against the harmful effects of UV rays. So, you can expect extended durability for your safety net and avoid discoloration after long usage.
