Safety Systems

From engineering and design through final inspection and training, we can help achieve your safety objectives.

Safe site access increases worker productivity and improves maintenance cycles of plant equipment. We design, engineer, and install a broad range of safety systems for buildings, transportation, and machines such as:

Access platforms, railings, and catwalks
Gangways and inspection systems for transportation, equipment, and aircraft
Horizontal lifelines, anchors, and fall restraint installation
Skylight and hatch guarding
Rooftop fall protection
Escape systems
HVAC and machine access

HVAC Safety

HVAC equipment presents unique hazards to maintenance personnel. Understanding equipment construction, access, code criteria and operating requirements is critical to both new and retrofit applications. We specialize in:

Safe access systems
Sound and vibration attenuation
Air and water hygiene
Gas monitoring
Davits and rigging assemblies
Custom access hatches and doors
Machine guarding

Area and Process Enclosures

We design safety enclosures and barriers to separate incompatible work functions and minimize sound, temperature and particulate hazards. Solutions include:

Custom curtain enclosures
Automated barriers
Modular cell enclosures
Curtain wall and total enclosure systems
Assembly line conveyor enclosures
Environmental separation curtains for weld, spark, and flash hazards
Perimeter guarding enclosures for robotic processes

Fume, Dust, and Water Filtration

Our custom and pre-engineered filtration systems remove environmental contaminants at the source. Solutions include:

Filter walls and environmental booths
Industrial air cleaners
Ductless filtration systems
Portable fume collection units
Skid-mounted mobile systems
Dust collection
Water filtration for hydronic and process applications

Sound and Vibration Solutions

Vibration and elevated sound levels may reduce the lifespan of plant equipment and negatively impact joint occupants. These issues are often overlooked and the negative impacts might not manifest for several years. Addressing sound and vibration issues up-front can benefit worker efficiency and safety, and protect the long-term health of employees. We offer the following sound and vibration services:

Investigation and testing
Custom sound attenuation for HVAC and machine applications
Vibration isolation design and retrofit
Sound enclosures

Environmental Hygiene Testing and Solutions

Environmental Hygiene issues may affect both human health and mechanical systems. These issues are often interrelated as poor equipment conditions or design deficiencies may affect building occupants downstream. Our team will assist with data collection and observations related to environmental air and water systems. We also support environmental hygienists with the evaluation of mechanical systems and potential causal factors. Our reports address both findings and mechanical recommendations for improvement. Solutions may include:
