Operational Zone Safety

An Operational Safety Zone in a warehouse is a designated area that safeguards equipment, inventory, and personnel from accidents and damage. These zones use barriers, guard rails, bollards, and other protective measures to establish clear boundaries and prevent collisions caused by forklifts, pallet jacks, and heavy equipment traffic.

Key applications include:

  • Inventory Areas: Protects shelving, pallets, and stored goods.
  • Loading Docks: Shields high-traffic areas during loading and unloading.
  • Production Lines: Ensures safety along assembly and packaging zones.
  • Pedestrian Aisles: Creates safe pathways for workers.

Protecting Operational Safety Zones is essential for maintaining efficiency, preserving assets, and promoting a safer work environment in busy warehouses.
