Accessories

Arborist work involves numerous tasks that are more or less complex. Therefore, specialists working at heights need equipment, which will not only protect them during work, but will also facilitate performing the tasks at heights. Apart from personal protective equipment or working tools, every employee working at heights needs specialist arborist accessories that streamline work regardless of the difficulty level.

Professional Standards and Certifications for Arborist Accessories

 

Modern accessories for arborists' equipment must comply with stringent international safety standards to ensure reliable performance in professional tree care operations. Accessories for arborists manufactured by PROTEKT undergo rigorous testing procedures that verify compliance with European standards, including EN 362 for connectors, EN 12275 for mountaineering equipment, and EN 795 for anchor devices. These certifications guarantee that each accessory meets or exceeds the demanding requirements of professional arboricultural work.

 

The certification process for arborist accessories involves comprehensive testing under simulated working conditions, including load testing, environmental exposure assessment, and long-term durability evaluation. This thorough approach ensures that accessories for arborists maintain consistent performance throughout their operational lifespan, providing reliable protection and functionality when it matters most.

 

Advanced Material Technology in TreeUP Accessories

 

The construction of professional-grade arborist accessories relies on advanced material science to deliver optimal performance characteristics. High-strength aluminum alloys, corrosion-resistant stainless steel, and engineered polymers are carefully selected for their specific properties and compatibility with arboricultural applications. These materials provide excellent strength-to-weight ratios while maintaining durability under harsh environmental conditions. Speaking of strength, also check our carabiners.

 

Accessories for arborists feature specialized surface treatments and coatings that enhance grip, reduce wear, and improve visibility in challenging working environments. Anodized finishes on aluminum components provide superior corrosion resistance. At the same time, textured surfaces on tool holders and ascenders ensure a secure grip even when wet or contaminated with tree sap and debris.

 

Maintenance and Inspection Guidelines for Arborist Equipment

 

Proper maintenance of arborist accessories is essential for ensuring continued safety and performance. Regular inspection protocols should include visual examination for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage, particularly at stress points and connection areas. Accessories for arborists should be cleaned after each use to remove contaminants that could affect functionality or accelerate degradation.

 

Storage conditions significantly impact the longevity of arborist accessories. Equipment should be stored in dry, well-ventilated areas away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Proper storage practices help maintain the integrity of materials and mechanical components, ensuring reliable performance throughout the accessory's service life.
