The two main types of scaffolding systems sold and used in the UK are Kwikstage and Scaf-lok (similar system to “Cuplok”, designed by S.G.B., one of the world’s leading suppliers of access and formwork products).
Cuplok, or Scaf-lok, is a galvanised system that uses a “cup” and “blade” type to lock the various ledgers and standards together.
Kwikstage is the most commonly used system. The main difference to a Scaf-lok is that it comes painted in yellow and uses a “wedge” and “V-pressing” to locate and lock all components together.
