BIG TEN IN 10 - IMPLEMENTING

INNOVATION

Focusing on the Traffic and Pedestrian Interface Big Risk, our Plant division has worked with Liebherr to implement safety features on our loading shovels. Each wheel loader features various intelligent safety solutions that move away from object detection and focus on human recognition systems that can operate in tight workspaces, such as: LOADING SHOVEL SAFETY FEATURES

SPRAY-BAR SYSTEM

With a focus on the ‘Working at Height’ Big Risk, our Transport division has come up with a solution for applying water to the tipper body of our asphalt lorries. The spray-bar system enables drivers to apply water to their tipper body directly from their cabs – something that, previously, would have had to be completed manually, involving climbing up onto the catwalk. By using water, rather than traditional releasing agents, it is also providing us with a more environmentally friendly solution. Once implemented across our fleet, as well as our subcontractor’s vehicles, we will remove 429,000 ‘Working at Height’ activities per year.

Reversing manoeuvres are one of the biggest killers in the construction industry and, by implementing this technology, FM Conway can eliminate the potential risk of circa 3.2 million of these incidents each year.
