Safety that keeps the flow running in automated cold storage
In Kuurne, Belgium, Coldo operates a highly automated freezer warehouse reaching nearly fifty metres in height. For Ceratec, responsible for delivering the automation solution, the challenge was clear: how to ensure safety, accessibility and maintenance without interrupting the flow. In this customer case, we explore how safe access, zone separation and modular safety solutions make it possible to carry out maintenance without shutting down the system.
Stainless Steel Machine Guarding for High Hygiene Environments
In food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing and washdown environments, machine guarding must support cleaning, resist corrosion and fit into strict hygiene routines. Standard guarding is not always built for these demands. Moisture, cleaning agents and hard to reach surfaces increase maintenance time and put compliance at risk. Through NTF, Axelent offers stainless steel machine guarding built for these environments.
Column Protectors for Warehouses: Shield your building from forklift damage
Forklift impacts rarely stop at the point of contact. A damaged column, cracked wall or frequently hit corner can lead to repairs, downtime and long-term structural wear across the facility. Column protectors for warehouses reduce that risk by protecting the structural assets exposed to daily vehicle traffic.
Pallet Racking Protection: Prevent forklift damage to uprights and aisle ends
Every forklift impact against a rack upright creates damage that spreads beyond the point of contact. One bent upright lead to inspections, repairs, downtime and reduced load-bearing integrity. Repeated impacts shorten the lifespan of the entire racking system. Pallet racking protection reduces that risk by protecting the areas where collisions happen most often: uprights, aisle ends and exposed traffic zones.

Every unprotected zone in a warehouse is a problem that hasn't happened yet. This guide helps you choose the right barrier system for each area in your facility, from high-traffic forklift routes to loading docks and pedestrian crossings.
