The indispensable role of safety equipment in the workplace
Workplace safety should be a top priority for all organisations. Beyond the moral obligation to protect employees, ensuring a safe working environment has numerous benefits. It reduces the risk of accidents and injuries, which can result in lost productivity, increased healthcare costs and potential legal liabilities.

What has the 2023/2024 winter got in store for the UK?
At the end of the day, the weather will do what it does but sometimes it's beneficial to know what the experts are forecasting. The preparations for a wet winter are very different to that of a continual cold, freezing spell of weather. Knowing the weather forecast can help you to avoid shut-downs due to extreme weather. Hopefully being prepared means you shouldn't get caught out! Check out the forecast here.
The careful handling of carbon fibre
Carbon fibre sheets come in a variety of material thicknesses. A safe storage method was required to handle sheets from 8mm up to 50mm thick. The sheets are extremely expensive at over £100 per kg for high grade carbon and therefore need careful handling.
The importance of servicing lifting equipment
Servicing and Thorough Examinations are of paramount importance for the safety of lifting equipment, operators, and the workplace as a whole. Adhering to LOLER regulations and conducting annual checks not only ensures compliance but also enhances safety measures, prevents downtime, extends equipment lifespan, and fulfils insurance requirements. By prioritising regular servicing, businesses can create a safer work environment, minimise risks, and optimise their operational efficiency.
