Centrica Drop Bottom Skip Demo

30th January, 2017 @ 07.31 pm

Safelift recently completed successful product demonstrations of the Drop Bottom Skip range at Centrica's South Killngholme base near Hull.

There was a desire to improve the handling of scrap metal from the fabrication workshop offshore.

The Safelift Drop Bottom skip range provided the potential of a safer controlled method of handling and emptying the scrap metal from the workshop into the larger scrap metal skip.

Due to the drop bottom skips being one of Safelift's more complex products and being new to the operator, Safelift recommended an on-site demonstration with operator and safety personnel present to truly appreciate the advantages and inbuilt safety features of the drop bottom skip range.

The demonstration provided positive feedback and desire to implement the system offshore reducing manual handling risk and providing a safer controlled method of emptying scrap metal. The 0.5te capacity skip was identified to be particularly useful as the compact design enabled the skip to be lifted through hatches direct from the workshop area.
