About Clan Ropes
This Scottish company was originally founded in 2015 in Queenstown, New Zealand. Clan Ropes was built on a passion for rope access and a dedication to safety at height.
From our roots in the adventure capital, we expanded to Calgary, Canada, before establishing our home base in Dundee, Scotland.
Today, we provide trusted rope access services throughout the UK, offshore, and abroad.
Clan Ropes offer a full range of rope access solutions, combining international experience with local expertise.
Our work spans:
Residential building maintenance – from washdowns and window cleaning to façade care and painting.
Facilities and specialist structures – serving warehouses, universities, hospitals, factories, glasshouses, and landmark structures across the UK.
Construction and engineering – delivering concrete and brickwork repairs, as well as bridge and tower inspections.
Offshore and refinery support – covering rigging and lifting, NDT inspection, painting, and blasting.
At the core of every project is our unwavering focus on safety. We are proud to maintain a 100% safety record, supported by documented hazard analysis and rigorous mitigation practices. Our goal is simple: to complete every scope on time, without incident, and to the highest quality standards.
From buildings in the heart of Scottish cities to offshore rigs in the North Sea and beyond, Clan Ropes is your trusted partner for reliable rope access solutions.
