The importance of installing guardrails before winter

With December just a few days left, the snow is just around the corner! It's time to think about installing guardrails. These devices ensure the safety of the occupants of an industrial zone. On sites at heights, they are all the more important to avoid a fall or a slip. The risks are greater in winter. Find out why to install it before the cold sets in. Also, learn more about our new guardrail.

What is an industrial guardrail and what is its role?

An industrial guardrail is a safety element. It is set up in industrial areas in order to prevent falls and accidents. It is generally installed around walkways, stairs, platforms, platforms, mezzanines, roofs, and any area where there is a risk of falling. These devices are specially designed to deal with difficult conditions in industrial environments, while providing optimal durability. They are made from sturdy materials and are subject to stringent safety standards. All of this ensures the protection of employees and visitors. The aim is to create a safe environment where workers and visitors can move around with peace of mind.

Protections that are particularly important in winter

As the cold sets in, the ground becomes more slippery due to the ice. High-rise sites are more dangerous for workers and staff who travel there. Thanks to guardrails, the risk of falling is greatly reduced. If you have not yet installed one, it is a good time to do so, before the cold weather arrives. This period is perfectly suited. The installation is easier, in the absence of layers of snow and ice.
