Safety barriers – ready for impact

The aim of the game in a warehouse environment is to achieve a risk-free workplace, although completing this particular game is harder than you think, says protective barrier supplier Boplan.

It is incredibly easy as the working day goes on that your staff’s physical awareness of their surroundings diminishes slightly. This can be all it takes for an accident to occur. It may include failure to hear the reversing sound of a forklift or even the sound of the fire alarm. It is pivotal that your staff are constantly alert as to where they are and where danger might be lurking.

One of the main advantages of implementing safety barriers in the workplace is to reduce any possible damage towards your vehicular fleet. A lack of protection towards your forklifts, trucks and flatbeds could result in costly damages. It only takes a split second of carelessness from a vehicle operator for an accident to occur.

In the unfortunate event of a collision, a safety barrier will dramatically lower the risk of physical injury, expansive damage to the vehicle and anything, or anyone, it may come into contact with. However, if you have a traditional steel barrier, the vehicle will succumb to excessive damage.
