Gotcha 2

The Rescue Kit your workforce cannot afford to be without!

Fall arrest lanyards, blocks and systems stop workers falling to the ground and are essential work at height equipment. However, the problem is not solved only by arresting the fall, the casualty may be suspended out of reach, injured and in need of rescuing to a place of safety for urgent medical care.

SpanSet invented the revolutionary Gotcha Rescue System in 2000 to solve this problem. Made in the UK, and recognised by industry as the market leader and the only patented, preassembled fall arrest rescue kit designed ready to deploy immediately in what can be a stressful situation. Gotcha – Safeguarding scaffolders and the trades working in the Construction, Energy and Facilities Management industries for over 20 years.

SpanSet design, manufacture and supply Work at Height, Lifting and Load Control equipment. We are constantly innovating, setting new industry standards and striving to keep workers safe.

Gotcha 2 is an ultra-lightweight update of the original Gotcha, used for remote rescue of casualties suspended from fall arrest equipment.
