We supply a wide array of products and methods
for securing equipment, furnishings, and shelf contents for
home, office, industrial manufacturing, and warehouse environments,
without impeding worker productivity. In many seismically
active areas, the law requires making the workplace safe and
secure. Recent earthquakes illustrate the need to protect
workers from the dangers of nonstructural hazards—such
as falling computers, business machines, file cabinets, storage
racks, heavy appliances, or other large equipment—as
they attempt to duck, cover, and hold.
Aside from the threat to personal safety,
computers are vital to the operational security of most businesses.
Damage to computer systems and networks may cripple the ability
of an organization to quickly recover. Computers are valuable
assets not only because of the equipment cost, but also for
the importance of their data.
The knowledge of the potential threat to workers
and to operational security should be enough to illustrate
the importance of a seismic fastening program. However, much
of the equipment that is currently used to fasten these items
is inadequate due to the building design itself. Many modern
office buildings contain walls that are little more than wallboard
and lightweight steel studs; simply bolting a unit to that
type of wall will do little to keep it in place during a seismic
event.
Our nonstructural seismic safety products
include specially designed fasteners, straps, brackets, and
restraints. Our stainless steel fasteners and bio-coated straps
are preferred by biotech firms and laboratories, because they
resist chemical corrosion and will not harbor fungus or bacterial
growth.
