Other news
Compactor hopper safety net: the simple protection that makes day-to-day work easier. On a loading dock, at a recycling facility or in a sorting centre, the compactor hopper is an area where you need to move fast while maintaining a high level of safety. With SafeCover®, OTEXIO offers a micro-mesh net for compactor hoppers designed to protect operators, reduce risky situations and keep handling comfortable every day.
Why secure a compactor hopper
The compaction area is a high-risk zone: repetitive actions, throughput constraints, clearing blockages or retrieving items can expose teams to dangerous situations. The objective is clear: reduce the risk of accidents and work with greater peace of mind, without complicating operations.
