TO IMPROVISED LOAD RATINGS!

No to the tragic images we see in local news reports.

Balustrade failures caused by age, rust, wired glass, deteriorated concrete and inadequate fixings are more common than one might think.

That is why Faraone strongly recommends consulting professionals and relying on cutting-edge technologies developed through real tests carried out in accordance with current regulations.
