Lyte Extra Wide Aluminium Staging Board (NVPROEX54)
Lyte NVPROEX54 Extra Wide Aluminium Staging Board – Professional-Grade Work Platform
The Lyte NVPROEX54 represents the pinnacle of staging board engineering, designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial professionals who require uncompromising safety and workspace efficiency. This Class 1 Lightweight staging board combines advanced materials with intelligent design to deliver a platform that outperforms traditional scaffolding and wooden boards in every measurable aspect.
Unmatched Durability for Heavy-Duty Applications
Constructed from aerospace-grade aluminium, the NVPROEX54 resists corrosion, weathering, and rot – common failure points in inferior staging products. The rot-proof decking maintains structural integrity even in wet or chemically exposed environments, eliminating the warping and splintering risks associated with timber alternatives. Unlike steel staging, this aluminium board won’t succumb to rust, reducing long-term maintenance costs by up to 60% compared to conventional options.
Safety Engineered for Compliance and Confidence
Every component of the NVPROEX54 adheres to EN131 and Work at Height Regulations. The patented rubber edge system provides 360-degree slip resistance, while the textured deck surface maintains traction even in oily conditions. Load-tested to 150kg distributed weight (meeting Class 1 standards), this staging board offers a safety factor exceeding industry requirements – critical for professionals handling heavy tools or working extended shifts.
Ergonomic Design Enhances Productivity
The extra-wide 600mm profile (20% wider than standard staging) allows comfortable kneeling or side-by-side tool placement, while the 5.4m length accommodates multiple workers simultaneously. Despite its generous dimensions, the board’s lightweight aluminium construction enables single-person handling – a stark contrast to cumbersome steel alternatives that typically require mechanical assistance for positioning.
