Type:
A prefabricated, transportable tower treated to withstand harsh weather conditions with the minimum deterioration.
Uses:
Lifeguard or surveillance towers for beaches, woods or similar uses.
Characteristics:
Its physical characteristics have been designed to make loading and transport as easy as possible. It is quick and easy to set up as it is transported fully finished and assembled. This means it is easy to make design modifications or last-minute location changes.
The design is particularly robust and practical, offering users guaranteed solidity and comfort within a compact area. Given its narrowness, stability is ensured by a construction system using a sand-filled ballast box at the base.
The final treatments and finishes give the structure effective protection against the weather and ensure its durability.
