Protective barriers are vital in industrial settings, where they serve to safeguard workers, equipment, and inventory from potential hazards. Strategically placing the correct barrier solution can help to prevent accidents such as collisions, falls, and equipment damage, while maintaining smooth operations and compliance with safety regulations.
TYPES OF PROTECTIVE BARRIERS
- Steel Barriers: Durable and robust, these are ideal for heavy-duty applications, such as protecting machinery and equipment from impacts.
- Guardrails: Commonly used to protect walkways and workstations, guardrails prevent workers from accidentally stepping into hazardous areas.
- Bollards: Vertical posts that protect entry points and pathways from vehicle collisions.
- Mesh Panels/Fencing: Used to enclose areas or separate work zones, providing both physical protection and visibility.
- Concrete Barriers: Often used in outdoor settings, these are perfect for managing heavy traffic and providing long-term stability.
PROTECTIVE BARRIER USES
- Workface Safety: Often used to create safe zones around machinery. They can also be used to guide footfall by creating designated walkways.
- Equipment Protection: Placing barriers around sensitive machinery or storage areas will help to prevent damage from forklift trucks, vehicles, and other moving equipment.
- Traffic Management: Barriers will help to manage both vehicle and foot flow, allowing for tasks such as safe loading and unloading operations.
