Ground-level controlled manhole cover puts safety first
Van den Bosch has signed an agreement with Etec for the development and supply of ground-level controlled manhole covers. This new generation of manhole covers has been developed for the transport of dry bulk goods and is unique in the market. “We’re combining innovation with safety to set a new standard in the supply chain”, says Barry Gruijters, Operations Director division Dry Bulk.
Increasing safety in the supply chain has the highest priority for Van den Bosch. “When it comes to equipment innovation, we are always looking for new ways to work smarter and safer”, says Gruijters. “For example, we have made a lot of progress in recent years with the introduction of ground-level controlled trailers and containers within the liquid bulk segment, which cut out unnecessary work at height. Now we are also introducing this way of working in the dry bulk market.”
