Danpol Ltd Joins BSIF Duty Holder Membership – Building Safer Futures TogetherFellow builders, engineers, and safety champions,
We’re proud to announce that Danpol Ltd has officially joined the British Safety Industry Federation (BSIF) as a Duty Holder Member.
This isn’t just another certificate to hang in the office. It’s a declaration that our scaffolding, thermal engineering, and confined space rescue operations are now backed by the UK’s leading safety trade body. In short: we don’t just build structures, we build trust.

What This Means for Us
- We now carry the BSIF Duty Holder Membership certificate and logo — a visible mark of accountability in construction safety.
- We’ll be part of ongoing campaigns tackling workplace risks, starting with HAVS (Hand‑Arm Vibration Syndrome).
- We’ll receive regular intelligence and updates from BSIF — and yes, we promise not to unsubscribe.
- We’ll contribute to shaping awareness initiatives that benefit not just members, but the wider construction industry.
- We’ll have a stronger voice in national safety conversations, ensuring scaffolding crews, thermal engineers, and rescue specialists are heard.
Campaign Spotlight: “Bad Vibrations” One of the first campaigns we’re supporting is Bad Vibrations — tackling confusion around Hand‑Arm Vibration Syndrome.
More than 2 million workers are at risk every year from repetitive use of vibrating tools. HAVS is painful, sometimes irreversible, but entirely preventable with the right precautions.
The guide covers:
- What HAVS is and where it occurs
- Which tools are most likely to cause it
- Methods to control exposure in the workplace
- How vibration is measured and quantified
- Relevant standards to be aware of
- Helpful links for deeper exploration

Why This Matters to Construction For us, safety isn’t just a regulation — it’s the foundation of everything we do.
Whether we’re:
- Erecting scaffolding at height
- Insulating thermal systems in hazardous environments
- Rescuing workers from confined spaces
It ensures our teams are protected, our clients are reassured, and our industry continues to raise the bar.
Think of it as upgrading from a “hard hat” to a full exosuit of responsibility.

Next Steps
- We’ll be participating in future BSIF Duty Holder interface meetings.
- We’ll share updates, campaigns, and resources here on the forum.
- We welcome suggestions from our community — if you see an area where awareness is lacking, now is the time to speak up.
- We’ll integrate BSIF campaigns into our training sessions, toolbox talks, and rescue drills.
Acknowledgments
- BSIF — for welcoming us into the Duty Holder family.
- Our crews — for living safety every day on site.
- Coffee — the unsung hero of toolbox talks and late‑night risk assessments.
- Our clients — for trusting us not just to build, but to protect.
- And yes, even the hazards themselves — because without them, we wouldn’t be this motivated to innovate.
Final Words This membership is more than a certificate — it’s a declaration that we’re serious about safety, awareness, and responsibility.
Together with BSIF, we’ll continue to push boundaries, fight confusion, and ensure that both our teams and our clients are protected.
Welcome to the Duty Holder era. Let’s make it count.
