Equipment Repairs
Machinery, conveyors and controls may need specialist work or replacement parts.
The Cost Behind An Impact
The Repair Bill Is Only Part Of The Cost.
When a forklift strikes equipment or infrastructure, the financial impact can continue long after the damaged part is repaired. To understand the return on better protection, account for everything the incident takes out of your operation.
Lost Production Time
An affected machine can interrupt the processes and schedules that depend on it.
Unplanned Maintenance
Assessment, isolation and repair take skilled people away from planned work.
Floor And Anchor Repairs
Damage around fixings can add concrete repairs and keep an area out of service longer.
Built Around Your Operation
Protect The Areas Where Damage Becomes Downtime.
The strongest return comes from addressing the places where an impact could affect people, equipment or the flow of materials through production.
Production Equipment
Keep vehicle impacts away from machinery and controls whose repair could stop production.
Material Supply And Storage
Limit damage in storage areas that supply components and materials to the line.
People And Vehicle Routes
Use physical segregation to define routes and support safe, efficient movement between work areas.
Floors And Infrastructure
Account for the barrier, its anchors and the surrounding floor when planning for impact costs.
Where Is Impact Damage Costing Your Facility?
Talk through your highest-risk areas with an A-SAFE specialist and identify where better protection could reduce recurring costs.
Engineering Behind The Return
How A Barrier Handles Impact Changes What It Costs.
The ROI of impact protection depends on what happens after installation. A-SAFE polymer barriers are engineered to manage impact energy and reduce the repairs and upkeep that can add cost over time.
Manage Impact Energy
Controlled flex helps absorb energy and reduce force transferred to floor anchors.
Recover After Impact
Recovery within rated performance limits can reduce replacement work after vehicle contact.
Reduce Routine Upkeep
Polymer components do not rust or need repainting, removing recurring maintenance tasks.
Match Performance To Risk
Select a tested system for the vehicle, impact conditions and clearance in each area.
“The initial cost of installing A-SAFE barriers has been more than offset by the savings we have made on the replacement of damaged parts and regular painting and maintenance.”
Customer Experience
The Return Shows Up In Lower Maintenance Costs.
For this Coca-Cola facility, savings on damaged parts, painting and maintenance more than offset the initial barrier investment. Those ongoing costs belong in any ROI comparison.
The Investment Decision
Calculate The Cost Over Time.
The purchase price is only one part of the ROI calculation. Compare what each option will cost to install, maintain, repair and replace, along with the production time that could be lost after an impact.
Costs To Include
Initial installation, replacement components, repair labor, floor repairs and routine maintenance.
Operational Impact To Include
Restricted access, equipment downtime and disruption to the people and processes that depend on the affected area.
