FAQs
Common questions
Why use mesh for machine guarding?
Mesh provides a physical barrier while allowing operators and maintenance teams to see machinery, status lights and moving parts from outside the guarded area.
Can guarding panels be made to custom sizes?
Yes. Custom sizes, doors and fabrication details can be considered for machinery layouts that do not suit standard panels.
