Be Smart this Safety Month and All Year Long!


The National Safety Council kicked off their Safety Month June 1, leading organizations to spread awareness about safe practices to reduce injuries and death at work. In conjunction, OSHA’s Safe+Sound Week ran from June 12-18, drawing attention to finding and mitigating health risks and hazards in the workplace.
Metallic Products Places Safety Front and Center During National Safety Month

Metallic Products takes safety seriously – and not just during Safety Month. We proudly received the Metal Building Manufacturers Association (MBMA) safety award in May for having no recordable injuries in 2016. Through company-wide initiatives and employee leadership, our team is dedicated to safe operations.

While we’re following safety procedures and protocols while manufacturing the high-quality products you’ve come to expect from Metallic Products, take a look at these metal building and ventilation safety tips we believe in:

  1. Keep vents clear of objects like file cabinets, shelving or machinery to prevent airflow cut-off.
  2. If applicable, open windows and doors to create a cross draft and allow fresh air into your space.
  3. Review sources of pollutants and airborne contaminants including chemicals, building materials and equipment.
  4. Assess your entire ventilation system monthly to eliminate issues quickly.
  5. If a manufacturing process changes, evaluate your ventilation system to determine if you’ll need to expand and add to it.
