Products and Services

Modular Construction -Helidex provides the engineering, fabrication and installation services for new offshore and land based helidecks as well as the upgrading of all types of helicopter landing facilities. We provide the complete aluminum pancake package comprised of our Heliflex 6000CL planks over our patented aluminum I12 beams. The Guttex 6000 gutter profile is used for the drainage system.

We design our own decks to meet any Codes or regulations. We also provide design services for the support framing. We design lighting system as well as solar powered systems for unmanned platforms.

Our systems also include pre-assembled modular safety net panels supported by aluminum outrigger which are bolted to the support framing. Additional components such as lighting (FAA, Zone 1 or Zone2), landing nets, AFFF fire suppression systems and rescue equipments can also be provided for our pancake systems.

We have recently developed a system for the retrofit of timber deck using a newly developed decking shape which is compatible with the construction of existing timber Helidecks.  The Heliflex 6000TR decking planks can be mounted directly over the steel framing, the typical system used to support the timber planks. Neoprene gaskets are supplied and installed between the aluminum and steel. Specially designed clamps are used to attach the decking to the framing. Alternatively, a specially designed aluminum adaptor plate is fasten to the steel framing at limited locations and the decking the decking is then clamped to the plates using our patented Heligrip 6000 aluminum clamps and inverted carriage bolts.

Fire & Safety - Our helidecks are usually supplied with  fire fighting and safety equipment in accordance with CAP 437 and other related Codes including AFFF self-contained foam stations , complementary media and crash/rescue equipment.

We have recently started supplying Deck Integrated Fire Fighting System (DIFFS) as an alternate to a Fixed Monitor System (FMS). The DIFFS system is still AFFF based and is based on a proven Tyco/Ansul design. Unlike in other designs where the spray nozzles are located within the deck, our nozzles a mounted on the perimeter of the helideck for an effective foam application and a reliable system. Deck mounted nozzles are susceptible to clogging and tend to collect debris and may fail to activate if not properly maintained or the deck cleaned regularly
