Rapid-EPS Containment System
Extended Height, Increased Safety!
When using the Rapid Post or Rapid Post Extra with our range of Rapid Panel, increased height or full height safety can be achieved in minutes.
The Rapid Post and Panel offers extended height or full height containment opportunities; this is an ideal solution when working in busy city centres with high pedestrian traffic. Containment is becoming more popular as it gives the ultimate safer work zone.
The Rapid system is tested to exceed the requirements laid down in the EPF & British Standard for increased height and full height temporary edge protection systems.
Installed in minutes. The industry-proven Rapid Post system is the fastest system to install and one of the safest!
Edge protection performance without compromise!
Our panels can meet the test requirement for standard height, extended height and full containment system height.
All products are fully tested by Lloyds British test house and have been proven to meet and exceed the test requirements set out in BS EN 13374:2025 Class A & B plus OSHA / O. Reg. 213/91 / AS/NZS 4994.1:2009.
The innovative Rapid Work Through Panel has been designed and tested to meet the requirements laid down in BS EN 13374:2025 Class A & B.
The simple but efficient patent pending panel system provides the facility for operatives to safely reach through the panel to access the perimeter of the building without compromising their safety.
As with all Rapid-EPS panels, the Work Through Panel has been designed to meet the challenges and expectations of today’s construction industry.
For added protection all new Rapid Panel are shipped in purpose built stackable transportation aids and are shrink wrapped to ensure the product is in pristine condition on arrival.
The standard for temporary edge protection system is known as BS EN 13374:2025 Class A & B and clearly states how the tests should be carried out.
In order to meet requirements for a Class B edge protection system, Class A static load testing should first be carried out.
Class A
The edge protection must resist a horizontal force of 0.3KN whilst maintaining elastic deflection within 55mm. The top guardrail must also accept a vertical force of 1.25KN applied as an accidental loading. The Rapid Edge Protection System has had numerous static loads applied up to four times the requirement.
Class B
Must resist the same static loading requirement’s for Class A and additionally must pass a low dynamic impact sphere. This test applies impact energy of 0.5 KJ to the top rail and 1.1KJ to lower areas.
Wind Loading available on request.
