Winning over the sceptics March 1st 2010 Global manufacturer Kimberly Clark
has upgraded its safety standards
across its plants internationally using
safety barrier specialist A-Safe.
Since trialling a small section of
double-rail traffic barrier at its paper
pulping line in Flint, UK, Kimberly
Clark has appointed A-Safe as an
approved supplier worldwide.
James Smith, director of A-Safe
explains: "Kimberley Clark gave us a
section of gantry to protect which
was constantly being destroyed by lift
trucks. It was a very vulnerable area
of the factory and no-one believed
that our barriers would fare any
better than the steel ones used
previously. The workers made a bet
that it would be down within a week!
Within months they had placed an
order for the whole site." More articles from A-Safe (UK) Ltd: |
