The Eco Anchor is the world's first mobile fall arrest anchor filled with water and is a totally unique concept in fall protection. It uses renewable resources for both maufacture and installation as it is constructed of a special natural rubber material that holds the bag in a solid cube form when filled with just water. The Eco Anchor is compatible with a large variety of roof surfaces including composite and mineral felts. It has been tested to exceed the EN795 class E standard and is suitable for use on pitched roofs of up to 15 degrees. When collapsed, the Eco Anchor weighs just 8kg, fitting into a small bag, and avoiding the need to transport, or carry heavy weights to the top of a building prior to installation.
