Safety recognition for Narrow Aisle
Tipton, United KingdomFor the second year in succession, Narrow Aisle Ltd has been awarded Safecontractor accreditation for its commitment to health and safety.
The Safecontractor scheme recognises very high standards in health and safety management among UK contractors.
Safecontractor-compliant businesses undergo a vetting process which examines health and safety procedures as well as their track record for safe practice. Those companies meeting the required standard are included on a database, which can be viewed via the Safecontractor website.
"We are pleased to have renewed our Safecontractor status. Safety is a key consideration in the design and implementation of any piece of materials handling equipment and, of course, it is paramount within the manufacturing process," says Peter Wooldridge, managing director of Narrow Aisle Ltd.
