of the workplace and the process. And together, you can
come up with a genuinely customised solution.
A production line full
of innovative solutions
Just like every situation, the request from RAVO was
unique. There is no standard when it comes to custom-
made. In a production line such as this, where every week
ten cleaning trucks are constructed in consecutive stages,
safety and well thought out access solutions are vital. This
was also the conclusion of the Labour inspectorate when
he paid a visit on location. Safety could be improved and
separate, standard access equipment were being used. It
was a definite challenge.
The work on the production line takes place at various
heights and next to, on and around the trucks themselves.
This requires working bridges, walkways and industrial
platforms that connect seamlessly into the production
process. Altrex put its mind to the task in order to fulfil the
legal regulations and norms, the requirements of RAVO and
its employees. Specific and innovative.

department visited the location to gather information and
draw a solution ‘in the field’. The result? a clear technical
