Every year there are thousands of reportable forklift truck related accidents. These can result in death or serious injury, damage to equipment and costs to employers.

The main causes of injury and deaths are:

  1. Lack of operator training.
  2. Inadequate premises
  3. Poor forklift maintenance
  4. Lack of seperation between pedestrians and forklifts

To start off with every warehouse or factory should have adequate Forklift Warning Signage.

Warehouse Convex Mirrors which allow forklift operators and pedestrians to view around corners or hard to see positions in warehouses or factories.

Barriers are also a must have in every warehouse operating forklifts, the team at Industroquip offer a massive range of options from temporary warning barriers through to high impact collision warehouse barriers as pictured below.

This barrier helps seperate pedestrians from forklifts, trucks and moving plant and keep them safe.

Some warehouses are choosing to close off aisles with our Maxi Expanding Barriers to completely stop pedestrians accessing an aisle while forklifts are in use and finding this very successful.
