Case Study · Active & Passive Safety Solutions
Active and Passive Safety Project at Aryzta Facility
Active and passive safety solutions tailored to the unique scenario were implemented to protect workers and streamline site operations.
The Problem
Aryzta Food Solutions faced a busy factory environment with high levels of forklift and pedestrian activity, creating several blind spots.
While a pedestrian walkway existed, it was unclear, unsegregated, and lacked effective safety systems. This increased the risk of accidents for both pedestrians and forklift operators.
The Solution
Active and passive safety solutions tailored to the unique scenario were implemented to protect workers and streamline site operations.
Pedestrian walkways were segregated with durable barriers and gates, ensuring visibility before crossing.
Clear and highly durable floor markings replaced the confusing old ones, and real-time projected markings were linked to sensors to alert forklift drivers when pedestrians were approaching crossings.
The Result
Aryzta Food Solutions has since experienced a significant improvement in site safety and efficiency.
The clear walkways reduced confusion, while active safety systems alerted forklift drivers in real-time, preventing accidents.
Pedestrian protection was further enhanced with robust barriers that withstood forklift impact, proving their effectiveness and durability.
This project has brought long-term safety improvements, tailored to Aryzta’s specific needs.
Systems Used
Signum Gobo Projector
Introducing the Signum Projected Markings Projector, a game-changing solution for safety enhancement in warehouses and facilities.
d-Flexx Pedestrian Barrier 3 Rail
The flexible d-flexx safety barrier is an innovative and economic separation of pedestrian areas and trails. Due to the modular system a customised solution can always be supplied by means of individual cuttings.
FloorCote Epoxy Floor Coating
FloorCote is a range of epoxy floor coatings with excellent chemical resistance, ideal for use on warehouse and facility floors that are heavily trafficked by forklift trucks.
These barriers are not only an improvement in people and plant segregation, but also a much cleaner alternative to metal barriers.
