Securyfence is undergoing a significant update to comply with the recently renewed European machine safety standards.
These new regulations impose stricter requirements on safety distances around machines, aiming to further reduce risks for employees in industrial environments. The most significant changes concern the following points:
- Kickplates and tunnels: Adjustments have been made to the required safety distances, meaning that new elements are being added to the standard fencing sets. Kickplates are now applied in certain positions, as well as the use of tunnels at passage openings. These ensure that moving parts of machines are even better shielded, keeping employees protected from potentially hazardous zones.
- More compact footprint: Thanks to the implementation of tunnels and optimizations in the design of our standard sets, the fencing systems now have a smaller footprint. This provides more flexibility in workspace layout without compromising safety.
From now on, tunnels will be included as standard in all new quotations that include fencing sets. These changes ensure that Securyfence remains a leading solution for machine safety, fully in line with the latest regulations and technological innovations.
With this update, we not only guarantee safety but also continue to meet the strictest European safety standards.
