Our client had their storage systems inspected in their warehouse and the result was an improved protection of their workers’ safety.
Find out in their testimonial why they opted for the inspection and how it affected their compliance:
Why is security in the warehouse and in the company in general important to you?
” The most important point is, of course, the safety of our employees.
In the event that the pallet racking does not perform well if their capacity is not good – there is the risk of a level falling on the employees, which is very dangerous for their safety and their lives.
And secondly, the value of our products – if the racks are damaged, there is a risk of losing inventory value. “
What changes did the inspection bring you?
” Following a reconfiguration of our existing racking, which was carried out by Pedlex, we appreciated Pedlex’s expertise in shelving safety. Over the years, there had been accidents at our premises that damaged the racks, and we have now redesigned the factory to prevent the racks from continuing to be damaged.
Thanks to our continuous improvement efforts, we also redesigned the production line and racking. The report issued by Pedlex really targeted the issues, including racks that needed to be repaired or replaced, which made employees feel safe by clearly displaying the allowable load per rack. “
Is there a good time to invest in security?
“ We are convinced that it is better to do business with professionals who come to analyze the warehouse, i.e. are there any guards at the base of the racks, etc., to avoid accidents.
At first glance, there are many expenses, because the process of making warehouses compliant and secure takes a lot of parts that you don’t think need to be added. But at the end of the day, people are irreplaceable.
Moreover, the loss of value of merchandise costs much more than adding protectors to the end of rack aisles, or repairing racks or forklifts.
It is worth having your premises inspected by a professional company, to avoid the dangers. You don’t want to react to a catastrophic situation; on the contrary – we want to be ahead of it and avoid a situation that could lead to a catastrophe. “
