Lifetime extension

ScaleAQ offers lifetime extension of floating collars. In practice, lifetime extension means that the entire plastic ring is reused, along with both the handrail and the walkways. Abrasive parts such as steel components are renewed so that the pens can be certified for another 15 years of use and meet current standards and requirements (NYTEK23). All plastics are in good condition and only the small abrasive parts need to be renewed. Can be adapted to all modern pen configurations and accessories.

A smart choice

We hope that all our customers will consider the possibilities for extending the life of their floating collars before deciding to buy new ones. In addition to the fact that lifetime extension avoids further CO₂ emissions and the production of virgin plastic, it is also profitable due to the high market prices for raw materials.
