ACAS has a team of specialists which can be deployed for various activities and safety projects. The Hard Access Safety and Rescue Team (HASART) can perform specialized work in confined or difficult spaces, at heights and on or around the water. They often used rope access techniques that allow them to perform certain activities in hard to reach areas. Think of radio antenna towers, inspecting equipment, bridges, dams, buildings,etc. 

Rope access is widely used in situations where access by other means is difficult or impossible, such as in wind turbines, towers, (factory) halls, theaters, etc. Hard Access Safety and Rescue Team (HASART) may undertake work in many different locations and can be used for various activities in the offshore (petrochemical) industry, construction, confined spaces, in and around the water etc. 

It is also possible to provide a support team to complement your existing team so that these people can carry out specific activities for your team, where your team is not equipped for.

In addition to running operations, we also advise whether we can protect your worksite so you can continue your work. 

 As one of the few hard and difficult access teams in the Southwest, Hard Access Safety and Rescue Team (HASART) can be deployed as a stand-by rescue team immediately so a rescue can be done in case of emergencies. HASART also specializes in rescue at height, confined space and water. The members of HASART have extensive medical knowledge, so they can apply first aid directly. 

If desired it is also possible to only deliver expertise for  specific business to complement your incident management process.
