How Thermal Covers Keep You And Your Employees Safe
Thermal covers are a fantastic investment if your workplaces uses extreme-temperature machinery. They ensure that your employees won’t get hurt when handling specialist equipment by shielding them from parts of the machinery that get extremely hot or cold. Not only are thermal covers an essential item for protecting employees, but they also come with a variety of other benefits too. Here’s how thermal covers keep you and your employees safe:
Protection from coming into contact with extreme temperatures
The main way that thermal covers protect you and your employees is through preventing contact with high temperatures. Your workplace has machinery or pipes that can become incredibly hot and, although your employees know what they’re doing, mistakes can be made by anyone. If one of your employees tripped in the direction of a hot pipe or machine, a thermal cover would prevent them from being badly scolded.
Protection of your machinery
Valves, pipes and exhausts are all susceptible to damage if not properly insulated by a thermal cover. When the integrity of your machinery is compromised, so is the safety of your workers, so this is another way that thermal covers protect you and your employees. Give your machinery the gift of a longer life when you invest in quality thermal covers from Steamline.
Legal protection
If an unauthorised person entered the building and touched the hot part of your machinery, they may even try to press legal charges against you. What are the odds of this? Incredibly low. But these stories are more frequent than you’d think. A thermal cover on your machinery proves that you tried to prevent a situation like this from happening as best as you could.
