Heavy machinery plays an integral role in improving warehouse productivity — and thus profitability — but assembly lines and welding stations also introduce some unique hazards such as crushing and entanglement. An effective and affordable solution is the use of safety barriers. However, they are not all created equal. While conventional barriers tend to be bulky and generic, ZonePro® units by Modus™ are effortlessly mobile and fully customizable.
In warehouses with potentially dangerous components, ensuring the safety of employees while optimizing operational flow becomes a top priority. ZonePro® understands the specific challenges posed by heavy machinery and tailors its solutions accordingly. The barriers are available in multiple sizes, formats, and OSHA compliant colors — and can be fully customized to address the nuanced risks of these environments.
For example, ZonePro® barriers can communicate effectively in places where visual cues are critical. Brightly colored barriers, displaying messages like “Caution Assembly Line in Progress” or “Danger Welding Area,” serve as important visual guides, enhancing awareness and minimizing the risk of workplace accidents. By their very nature, these environments demand swift, flexible solutions, and ZonePro® has that covered too.
ZonePro®’s single mobile stanchion can be easily rolled to any location, creating a temporary safety zone — and then removed when no longer needed. Meanwhile, the ZonePro® mounted barrier offers a more permanent solution without compromising floor space. Given the size of assembling lines and manufacturing stations, ZonePro® also sells a dual mobile stanchion that provides up to 28 feet of dual-sided coverage.
It should be noted that heavy machinery creates a high-impact environment, and ZonePro® barriers are manufactured from the highest quality industrial strength materials specifically with durability in mind. The mounted option is even equipped with breakaway brackets that minimize damage from collisions, ensuring longevity and increasing ROI. Unlike traditional options, damaged components of a ZonePro® unit can be easily and affordably replaced.
If your warehouse incorporates heavy machinery, make safety a priority with ZonePro® barriers. Contact Modus™ today to discover how we can elevate your safety standards and protect your most valuable asset: people.
