When carrying out maintenance on the precipitator at CS Energy's Callide B power station, workers must enter a confined space. For the maintenance worker's safety, the area must be isolated using a 'double block and bleed' or a 'full pressure spade' to achieve an acceptable safety rating and for the space to be assessed as low risk. This case study describes how GII helped create an award-winning solution.

Giant Inflatables Industrial was approached by Paul Freimanis – HSE Advisor at Jacinth Ambrosia Mine and his team to design and build an inflatable air bag to fill the void under their MUP tracks. The idea was to create an inflatable bladder to prevent dirt ingress and save an extensive manual handling task. To find out more about this project, read the case study.
