After all, protecting your employees from potential hazards is essential for minimizing both personal and operational risks. A proper and secure surface treatment is a crucial part of this, and the Korthals Group is the specialist you can trust. Below, you\u2019ll find an overview of innovative and reliable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/safety-at-work\/\">safety solutions<\/a> for factory environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Korthals Group: your safety partner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Korthals Group, we understand the importance of a safe working environment. We offer a wide range of safety products specifically designed to minimize risks in factories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Reducing Fall and Slip Hazards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most common causes of factory accidents is floor-related: slips and falls. Many of our flooring systems can be equipped with an anti-slip finish to help prevent such incidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Suitable products: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/floors\/products\/\">Virtually all HIM floor coatings and systems<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Marking Hazardous Areas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also critical to clearly indicate hazardous zones within your factory. Adding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/marking-and-lining-solutions\/\">lines and markings<\/a> can significantly improve safety in various ways, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Crosswalks and waiting zones for smooth and safe movement<\/li><li>Pictograms and symbols to provide warning signals<\/li><li>Signage to clearly mark evacuation routes<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Suitable product: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.him.nl\/en\/product\/lmp\/\">HIM LMP<strong> (L<\/strong>ining and&nbsp;<strong>M<\/strong>arking&nbsp;<strong>P<\/strong>aint)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Hazard Identification in the Production Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In chemical factories, the production process itself can lead to hazardous situations, such as fire risks or exposure to acids, corrosive substances, and toxic chemicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Overheating risks<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Thermal installations, such as reactors, can overheat\u2014a risk you want to avoid at all costs. With temperature-sensitive paints, such dangers can be identified early. These coatings change color when a safe temperature threshold is exceeded, providing an instant visual warning so safety protocols can be activated immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Exposure to aggressive acids<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The release of liquids or gases poses a real danger in factory environments. For example, in production settings where hydrogen fluoride is used, this acid\u2014part of a closed system\u2014can leak at pipe joints and connections, leading to catastrophic consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With hydrogen fluoride color-change coatings, potential leaks become instantly visible. This signaling function allows for rapid and effective responses to such risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Suitable products: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.korthals.nl\/en\/varnishes\/therm-o-signal\/\">Therm-O-Signal<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.korthals.nl\/en\/news\/safety-above-all-with-hydrogen-fluoride-indicating-paint\/\">KB hydrofluoric acid color changing paint<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your factory\u2019s safety is our priority<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to factory safety, there\u2019s no room for compromise.
