5 September 2024 | 1 minute read

We’re excited to share our amazing experience at the 2024 SARNZ Conference and Trade Show in New Zealand! Over three action-packed days, we connected with industry peers, exchanged valuable insights, and engaged in meaningful discussions that are set to influence the future of the scaffolding industry.

Building Connections with Industry Leaders

The SARNZ Conference is more than just a trade show—it’s a global gathering of industry leaders, innovators, and professionals. This year, we were especially excited to connect with so many talented peers, not just from New Zealand but also from the UK, Australia, and beyond. Sharing our skills and knowledge with New Zealand companies was a highlight, and we were proud to be part of such a diverse and collaborative group.

Knowledge Sharing and Growth across the Tasman

At ScaffPlan, we were excited to showcase how our digital tools are revolutionising scaffolding projects. Our masterclasses provided practical strategies for scaling businesses, reducing costs, and enhancing efficiency. Engaging with New Zealand companies and scaffolding professionals highlighted the importance of global collaboration in raising industry standards and driving innovation across the scaffolding and temporary works sector.

Gaining Expertise from the Best

The keynote speakers delivered inspiring presentations that offered fresh ideas and new approaches to addressing challenges in the scaffolding industry. We also gained invaluable insights into the UK market, knowledge we can’t wait to put into practice. 

Highlighting Mental Health

Health and safety are vital in the scaffolding and temporary works industry, and this extends to mental well-being. One of the most impactful aspects of the conference was the focus on mental health. SARNZ CEO Tina Wieczorek courageously led important discussions around the significance of mental health in our field, reminding us that seeking help is not only okay but essential. We fully support their ongoing efforts to raise awareness and foster a culture of openness about this critical issue.

Looking Ahead

We’re returning from New Zealand energised with new ideas, strengthened by fresh partnerships, and deeply committed to pushing innovation in the scaffolding industry. We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this event possible, from the dedicated organisers to the insightful speakers, and to all the attendees who shared their passion and expertise.

The 2024 SARNZ Conference and Trade Show was truly an unforgettable experience for the ScaffPlan team. We’re excited to bring what we’ve learned back into our work and continue driving change. See you all in 2025.
