Scramble Net

The Scramble Net​​ is a kind of safety critical equipment designed primarily for rapid personnel deployment or evacuation (embarkation or disembarkation) between vessels, offshore platforms, or ship-to-shore locations under emergency or operational conditions. Also known as a ​​"Jacob’s Ladder Net"​​ or ​​"Scramble Web"​​, it provides a secure climbing surface with high tensile strength and slip resistance, ensuring safe access even in rough sea conditions.

Product Introduction

 

The Scramble Net is constructed from PP ropes (or Sisal / Manila rope) interwoven with wooden spreader. It is engineered to withstand harsh marine environments including saltwater, UV radiation, and extreme temperatures. Commonly used on ships, oil rigs, barges, and naval vessels, scramble nets serve as an essential component of safety and emergency response systems.


They are often deployed along the ship's side or between vessels during:

  • Personnel transfer
  • Emergency evacuation
  • Boarding operations
  • Rescue missions
