Kimberly Clark has upgraded safety
standards across its international
plants thanks to safety barrier
specialist, A-Safe. Since trialling a
section of double-rail traffic barrier
on a paper pulping line in 2005,
Kimberly Clark has appointed A-Safe
as an approved supplier worldwide.

The polymer-based safety barrier
systems provide the strength and
durability of steel with the flexibility
and reduced maintenance of plastic.

The plastic used has a special in-built
memory, so any impact will be
absorbed before the barrier automatically
springs back to its original
shape. Therefore, unlike steel
alternatives, the A-Safe barrier does
not need to be replaced or repaired
each time it is hit.
