Platform provides safer scanning

08 July 2014

Contact Attachments has partnered with logistics firm, Maiden’s of Telford, to provide a safer way of scanning and checking pallets using work platforms.

The safety platforms are available to accommodate one to two people, have entry methods including gate and bar, come fully-certified, and comply with the latest PM28 Health and Safety regulations.

They are designed with perforated mesh to ensure the barrier between the platform user and potential hazardous areas of the forklift truck are protected, as well as anti-slip floor treads with drain holes to avoid accumulation of water or risk of slipping.

Jason Cadman, technical sales director at Contact Attachments, said: "Our forklift platforms and safety cages are ideal forklift attachments for when certain maintenance work is required, and allow the operator to work at height freely and safely without danger of falling.

"We manufacture a variety of models, some with gates for entry and others with fixed rails, and each have a security locking system to ensure the platform will not slide off the forklift. Full length fork pockets are also provided for complete stability, and harness anchorage points and on board handhold points are incorporated to ensure operator safety.”
