Machine Guarding & Safety Products


Our Business is Safeguarding Yours!

Many manufacturers continue to build and sell their tools without the necessary machine guarding and electrical controls required by OSHA and various safety regulations. There are no laws that require them to do so. OSHA states that if the operation of equipment or if accidental contact can injure the operator or others in the vicinity, the hazards must be either controlled or eliminated.

Do you know what an machine accident can cost you? A single accident can mess up your finances for years. Money set aside for a new car or vacation is spent on doctor bills. You may be off work for months or unable to return at all. You'll spend your free time battling your insurance company to get a fair settlement. If the accident happens at work, a legal judgment against an employer can easily bankrupt an otherwise healthy company.

So what's the solution? By safeguarding machines, you can protect employees and save money by reducing insurance rates while increasing productivity. Start today by downloading a FREE DIY Machine Safety Survey Tool. Use it to conduct your own survey to uncover the most common problems on your woodworking and metal working machines.
