Safety and efficiency are paramount in the maintenance sector, particularly electrical maintenance. The choice of equipment for its maintenance technicians can therefore make all the difference. SPIE CityNetworks understands this and has opted for Bag PRO solutions.
Find out how this collaboration has transformed the daily lives of the company's electrical maintenance technicians and helped to improve safety in the field.
Interview with Robin LARBALETRIER: Quality, Safety and Environment Correspondent at SPIE CityNetworks
“My role is essential in ensuring that the demanding norms and standards of our business are respected in the field. SPIE is a demanding player that pays close attention to workplace safety issues. “

Safety and efficiency challenges for electrical maintenance technicians at SPIE CityNetworks
Before discovering Bag PRO's solutions, SPIE CityNetworks equipped its maintenance technicians with solutions in the form of conventional toolboxes, which did not allow for good technician mobility and did not promote the durability of TST tools.
“Generally, our network fitters use conventional toolboxes or buckets with, very regularly, mixed tools (TST and non-TST). There are leather toolboxes for TST tools, but they are heavy and cannot be carried in a rucksack.»
This situation posed several problems:
- Safety risk : Inadequate packaging of TST tools leads to premature degradation of their insulating properties, exposing users to electrical risks.
- Waste of time : The clutter in the toolboxes made it difficult to find tools quickly, wasting time and efficiency.
- Poor ergonomics : The leather tool cases for the TST tools were heavy and not very ergonomic, even incompatible with the «gestures and postures» recommendations. .
Bag PRO technician bags: An ergonomic and durable maintenance equipment solution
It was during a visit to the ISFME in Saint Affrique (12) that Robin LARBALETRIER discovered the maintenance equipment designed by Bag PRO: TECHNICIEN backpacks to meet the requirements of the CET BT (guide to live working). After several constructive discussions, a field test was set up.

After a year of intensive use, the results are more than positive:
“It was an instant hit with employees, who immediately appreciated its light weight, the fact that it could be worn as a rucksack, the various storage compartments for tools and PPE, and the cleanliness cover to create a clean working environment.”
One of the other benefits of Bag PRO's technician backpacks is their contribution to the safety and compliance of live working.
“With this solution, the tools drag less and it helps to produce clean and tidy TST work. We've had high marks for using this bag during several TST audits carried out by our customer ENEDIS.”
Why choose Bag PRO equipment for your maintenance technicians?
The Bag PRO technician backpack stands out for its functional and robust design. This equipment is perfectly suited to the demands of field maintenance. When you choose Bag PRO, you're opting for :
- Increased mobility: The bags have a rigid, lightweight structure, and the backpack straps are very comfortable when working in an area far from the vehicle or requiring a crossing phase.
- Ergonomics and safety : The access path to the contents allows PPE to be recovered before giving access to the TST tool contents. TST tools are packaged in specially designed insulated cartouches.
- Versatility: Optional extras can be added to suit the specific constraints and sensitivities of each trade or application.
- Maximum durability
“In summary, the Bag PRO technician backpack stands out for its comfort, robustness and functionality. It's an ideal choice for electricians looking for reliable, well-thought-out equipment to optimise their work in the field.”
Conclusion: Invest in the safety and efficiency of your teams
SPIE CityNetworks« experience demonstrates the need for appropriate equipment in such exposed activities. The bag is not »PPE" in the sense of the standard, but it remains a powerful lever for ergonomics and safety, which has received little attention to date.
“I would recommend Bag PRO for its commitment, the way it monitors projects, the quality of its relationships and, of course, the quality of its equipment.”
Be a visionary and don't wait any longer to give your teams the equipment they deserve.
