How training with Oxford Plastics makes your products last longer

Here at Oxford Plastics, we understand how important it is for you to have the right products for the job, not only can using products that are not fit for purpose affect the safety of the people working on the site, but it can also impact the safety of the general public and the longevity of your products.

In this article, we’ll explore how a major UK utilities company found that using the right products reduced the volume of products they needed.

How did we know they were the wrong working method?

Our Business Development Manager, Josh, visited the site, as they had been having issues with replacing boards too frequently. On investigation, Josh found out that they were using incorrect bolting methods and the trench covers were being used in the wrong ways, such as the boards being used at the wrong orientation, and for the wrong sized trenches.

The LowPro 15/10, LowPro 12/8 and LowPro 11/11 are all being installed correctly after a product demonstration session with Josh.

Other benefits include compliance with site safety protocols, meaning your site is not at risk of fines from Street Works Inspectors and Site Inspectors.
