Every BEAL rope, readable with a tap.
Since 2024 every rope we make carries an NFC chip. Tap it with any phone and the rope tells you what it is — reference, serial, date of manufacture, certification and its inspection history. No app to download.
BEAL professional ropes are Smart PPE™, powered by Scannable®.
One inventory, every brand
Manage all your PPE in one place, whoever made it. BEAL ropes sit alongside the rest of your kit rather than in a separate system.
Records that travel with the rope
Inspection history, certification and manufacture data live on the item, not in a spreadsheet on someone's laptop.
Inspections without the paperwork
Statutory checks are logged against the serial as you go — a scan replaces the form, and the audit trail builds itself.
Step 1
Tap or scan
Hold a phone against the NFC chip in the rope end, or scan the 2D code on metal and textile PPE.
Step 2
Read the record
Reference, diameter, serial, date of manufacture, declaration of conformity and inspection history.
Step 3
Add to inventory
The rope lands in the Scannable app, ready to assign, inspect and retire when its life is up.

Product names shown for illustration. Metal and textile PPE carry 2D codes rather than NFC.
A technician on site can confirm a rope is in date without calling the office. A PPE manager can close out an inspection while the rope is still in their hands.
BEAL Academy also runs a two-hour e-learning course on PPE inspection and management. See the course →
