We help you achieve a complete safety solution

Every logistics and manufacturing facility faces serious safety risks. Falling goods and forklift collisions that can damage critical infrastructure can disrupt workflows, increase costs, and compromise employee safety.

At Axelent, we specialize in safety. Our safety solutions are designed to protect your facility while meeting all industry regulations, ensuring your workplace is not only safe but fully compliant. With Axelent, you gain a partner who understands the challenges of modern operations and delivers solutions that prioritize long-term safety and operational efficiency.

Find where you need to improve safety:

Protect machinery and plant equipment

Separating pedestrians and vehicles

Protect vital infrastructure

Safety for pallet racks

Protect machinery and plant equipment
from collisions

Unprotected machinery and infrastructure are at constant risk in high-traffic environments. Forklift collisions can damage perimeter machine guarding, floors and even the machinery itself. These incidents can lead to expensive repairs, unplanned downtime, and compromised safety, putting both your workforce and operations at risk.

Axelent’s safety solutions shield your machinery and plant equipment from these risks. Industrial barriers act as protective buffers around exposed machine guarding, while tall bollards protect high-risk areas like in-feeds and out-feeds of conveyor systems. By absorbing impacts and keeping vehicles at a safe distance, these solutions ensure the safety of your equipment and the smooth flow of your operations.

Consult a safety specialist

Challenges:

Frequent forklift collisions damage perimeter guarding, machinery, and floors, leading to costly repairs.
Operational downtime caused by impacts disrupts workflows and delays production schedules.
Workers safety is compromised in high-traffic areas where unprotected machinery is vulnerable to accidents.

Solutions:

Install industrial safety guardrails to shield machine guarding from collisions, reducing repair costs and downtime and protecting critical equipment.
Secure high-risk zones like conveyor in-feeds and out-feeds with targeted protection to prevent accidents.
Create a physical buffer between vehicles and equipment to ensure the safety of workers and minimize operational disruptions.

“Axelent was perfect throughout the entire process. We worked together to find the correct solution for every area, and their performance was absolutely faultless. Even during the installation phase, we made numerous changes as needed, adapting to specific requirements. We collaborated closely to ensure everything came together seamlessly”

- Grant Mettam, Operations Manager, British Offsite in Essex, Great Britain

Why is creating safe routes for
pedestrians crucial?

In manufacturing plants and logistics facilities, unstructured traffic flow creates significant safety risks. Forklift collisions with pedestrians are among the most dangerous workplace accidents. High-traffic areas and crossings increase the likelihood of equipment damage and injuries. Add impaired visibility around pallet racking or machinery, and the risks multiply.

Creating clear, safe routes for both pedestrians and vehicles is one of the most effective ways to enhance workplace safety and improve efficiency. Axelent’s safety solutions are designed to help you achieve exactly that. Pedestrian barriers separate walkways from traffic areas, while impact barriers shield critical equipment and infrastructure from damage.

Challenges:

Pedestrians straying from designated walkways, increasing the risk of collisions.
Forklift collisions causing injuries, workflow disruptions, and added costs.
Floor damage from heavy equipment, leading to frequent maintenance and repairs.

Solutions:

Install pedestrian barriers to separate walkways from traffic routes and reduce collision risks.
Use impact barriers to protect shelving and machinery from accidental vehicle damage.
Create safer crossings with self-closing gates, high-visibility markings, and defined pathways.

Protect your workforce from forklift dangers

Forklift trucks are a significant safety risk in industrial environments. While they account for only 2% of workplace accidents, they are responsible for nearly 20% of fatalities. With over 33,800 serious injuries and 75+ fatalities reported annually in the U.S., many involving pedestrians, it’s clear that factors like limited visibility, site congestion, and inadequate safety measures amplify the dangers.

Axelent helps preventing accidents of internal traffic

Reduce risks and ensure safety around your pallet racks

Pallet racking forms the foundation of your warehouse, enabling smooth workflows and organized storage. However, without proper protection, it poses serious safety risks. Falling goods don’t just block aisles, they injure employees and halt operations. Forklift collisions weaken uprights, damage floors, and may even require entire sections to be shut down for costly repairs. In the worst-case scenario, unprotected racking could collapse entirely, leading to extensive damage, prolonged downtime, and severe safety hazards.

Axelent’s tailored safety solutions are designed to protect your racking and keep your operations running smoothly. Anti-collapse systems ensure goods stay safely in place to prevent accidents and ensure uninterrupted workflows. Mesh shelving adds another layer of safety by preventing smaller items from falling through the racking, reducing the risk of injury and material damage. End frame protection absorbs repeated forklift impacts to safeguard your racking, floors, and infrastructure from long-term wear and tear. Fast installation and minimal maintenance mean reduced downtime and enhanced safety, so you can stay productive

The long-term savings of polymer barriers

Investing in your facility’s safety means looking beyond initial costs to long-term performance. Polymer barriers outperform steel by minimizing maintenance needs, protecting floors from damage, and reducing vehicle repair expenses. Their modular design ensures quick repairs, lowering downtime and preventing costly disruptions.

Protect vital infrastructure without
compromising access

Critical infrastructure such as forklift charging stations, water and sprinkler systems, power supplies, and dock gates is essential for keeping operations running smoothly. However, this infrastructure is often at risk of vehicle collisions, resulting in unexpected expenses, operational delays, and safety concerns. At the same time, overly rigid protective measures can make maintenance access difficult and inefficient.

Axelent’s tailored safety solutions provide robust protection for your vital infrastructure without compromising accessibility. Impact-resistant bollards and barriers shield doorways and sensitive areas from collisions, reducing repair costs and operational disruptions. Modular rail systems allow sections to be easily removed, ensuring quick and efficient access for maintenance without compromising safety.

Consult our specialists

Challenges:

Damage to critical infrastructure like forklift charging stations, water systems, and dock gates caused by vehicle collisions.
Unplanned expenses and downtime due to repairs of floors and essential equipment.
Inefficient maintenance access caused by outdated or rigid protective systems.

Solutions:

Install impact-resistant bollards and barriers to protect sensitive areas from collisions.
Use modular rail systems to enable quick, efficient maintenance access while maintaining safety.
Ensure durable, long-term protection that reduces costs and operational disruptions.
