Boplan safety solutions separate walkways from forklift traffic at Modexpress in Helmond

Protecting pedestrians and infrastructure from forklifts

Modexpress wanted to make its warehouse safer by separating its pedestrian flows from its forklift traffic. Boplan® installed safety barriers with handrails at various locations within the warehouse.

Separating walkways from forklift traffic

The challenge

Modexpress asked Boplan to install safety barriers that prevent pedestrians from easily entering areas where vehicles are operating. We also developed a safety solution for machines. Boplan installed the sturdy TB 260 PLUS safety barrier at various locations around the warehouse. Elsewhere, the TB 400 and KP column protection are the ideal safety solutions to protect critical points in the company's warehouse.

Safety barriers that protect pedestrians and infrastructure from forklift traffic

As a one-stop shop for safety solutions, Boplan installed protection measures at several locations on the site. After assessing potential impacts, we recommended using the TB 260 PLUS to clearly separate and protect pedestrians from forklift traffic. This safety barrier with integrated handrails provides better visibility and guidance. Pedestrians notice the TB 260 PLUS straight away on entering the workplace and are more careful when traversing certain areas. The robust TB 260 PLUS also protects the fire extinguishers and goods lifts on site. We installed a TB 400 safety barrier to protect the cross braces.


 

Safety barriers meet various safety goals

Our safety barriers with handrails are impact-resistant, optimally visible, user-friendly and modular. They provide:

  • Safe separation of pedestrian traffic from other traffic flows
  • More safety awareness in the workplace
  • Protection against unexpected events such as forklift collisions

The high-visibility safety barriers have made our employees much more aware of safety in the warehouse. Thanks in no small part to Boplan’s safety solutions, pedestrians now move around our workplace in a logical, efficient and above all, safe way.
