Safesite’s Hercule Fall Arrest System has been installed at Classic Couverture’s distribution plant in Liverpool to provide a permanent fall arrest system for operatives needing to access the top of the company’s tankers.
Classic Couverture manufactures and processes chocolate in both liquid and solid forms for major retailers such as M&S and Sainsbury’s. The company approached Safesite for advice on how to protect workers needing access to the top of the tankers in order to fill them with liquid chocolate. Safe access to the vehicles was already being provided by a gantry with guardrails, but the problem was how to allow the workers to safely walk along the top of the tankers without restricting movement.
