At EMW, safety begins with good design and is the most important factor in preventing incidents from occurring. This is why we are using the latest software and techniques to identify risks, assign hazard level designations, design and implement mitigation strategies, verify that the design is satisfactory, and document all aspects of the design.
In cooperation with the engineering, production, maintenance and safety personnel of our customers, we can provide a safe work
environment by applying the latest industry standards and codes to our safety solutions.
