Warehouse Safety Starts With McCue

One of the biggest dangers of working in a warehouse is the heavy inventory that’s often stacked to the ceiling. Just the smallest bump from a forklift, pallet jack or other piece of equipment can cause these stacks to fall. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, around 8% of all forklift-related fatalities are the result of falling material.

One of the best ways to protect against this kind of accident is with our warehouse safety products. Just some of these include:

• Crash Barriers – Surround inventory on all sides with an impact-absorbing steel frame
• Pedestrian Barriers – Keep employees separated from heavy or fast-moving machinery
• Column Guards – Protect drivers from impacts with heavy steel or concrete columns
• Rack Guard – Safeguard your pallet rack columns from equipment mishaps. Use in conjunction with our Rack End Protectors.
