AT-PAC RINGLOCK DIBT APPROVAL

April 7, 2022

AT-PAC Ringlock scaffolding system receives one of the world's most recognized approvals for scaffolding – the DIBt. The Ringlock brand is the world’s first non-European scaffold system with the DIBt approval.   


In autumn 2020, AT-PAC and Doka entered into a global strategic partnership. This combined AT-PAC's many years of scaffolding experience with Doka's global presence. AT-PAC’s Ringlock system has been adopted and implemented by Doka as their own Scaffolding System to provide customers ‘more than formwork’.


DIBt Approval – A milestone

The DIBt (Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik) is a leading technical authority responsible for granting national approvals for construction products in Germany. It is one of the most recognized and regulated approvals for scaffolding worldwide. AT-PAC’s proprietary quality assurance program and rigorous quality checks, and expert scaffold knowledge have been proven to be successful by securing the DIBt approval and guarantees customers a supply of high-quality scaffolding system with globally recognized approvals and certifications. AT-PAC’s Ringlock approval number is Z-8.22-992.


This marks a major milestone in the scaffolding strategy of AT-PAC Doka: “The DIBt certification marks a significant milestone in our company’s history and realizes our vision over the past 10+ years to invest in the development of our products to build the basis for international growth and be recognized as one of the major scaffolding players in the market”, says Jeff Davis – CEO of AT-PAC.

AT-PAC, a world leader in the supply of industrial scaffold products, is proud to announce its partnership with Habitat for Humanity. AT-PAC is thrilled to announce their partnership with Habitat for Humanity , a leading non-profit housing organization dedicated to creating and advocating for affordable homeownership. AT-PAC is partnering as a National Sponsor, contributing $100,000 of funding along with strong volunteer support to work towards the goal of affordable homeownership for all. This is a significant step towards enhancing AT-PAC’s corporate social responsibility efforts and will make a tangible impact on the lives of future Habitat homeowners, helping them realize their dream of owning a home and building a brighter future for their families . To kick off this collaboration, AT-PAC has committed to help as a “Roof Raiser” sponsor for Habitat for Humanity’s 2024 Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Project in St. Paul, Minnesota, this October. This event will bring together an estimated 2,500 volunteers, community members, leaders, and future homeowners to build more than 35 new homes in five days! This annual, large-scale building event raises awareness of the critical need for affordable housing — the heart of Habitat’s mission. "This partnership reflects our shared commitment to building a better future, and I am excited about the positive changes we can achieve together" said Josh Dundon, CEO of AT-PAC. In addition, AT-PAC teams in both Atlanta and Houston will be participating in Habitat construction sites in their local communities, building alongside each other and future Habitat owners. Volunteers will see firsthand how affordable homeownership helps families build strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. About Habitat for Humanity Driven by the vision that everyone needs a decent place to live, Habitat for Humanity found its earliest inspirations as a grassroots movement on a community farm in South Georgia. Since its founding in 1976, the housing organization has since grown to become a leading global nonprofit working in local communities across all 50 states in the U.S., Puerto Rico, and more than 70 countries. Families and individuals in need of a hand up partner with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. Through financial support, volunteering or adding a voice to support affordable housing, everyone can help families achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build better lives for themselves. Through shelter, we empower. To learn more, visit habitat.org.
