Safer at height
Contact Attachments has supplied one of its single person Forklift Access Platforms to fire safety solutions supplier, Nu-Swift, to help the company’s staff work even safer at heights using its reach truck.
The team at Contact Attachments had to create a tailored design for the Forklift Access Platform to accommodate the length-adjustable Kooi forks fitted with pallet stops on the reach truck.
Contact Attachments’ safety platforms are able to accommodate one person or two people, and come with a range of different entry methods such as gate and bar. Each model has a perforated mesh at the back to ensure optimum protection between the user and hazardous area of the forklift truck, as well as anti-slip floor treads with drain holes to avoid accumulation of water and risk of slipping.
Dave Manuel, sales and technical director at Contact Attachments, said: “Our forklift safety cages and platforms are ideal for operators to work freely at heights, and for when unscheduled or emergency maintenance work is required. Like all of our products, they ensure optimum safety, and come fully-certified and fully comply with the latest health and safety regulations.”
