Damotech to Host Seminars and Promote Pallet Rack Safety at MODEX 2020

Damotech, Inc.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC, March 6, 2020 – Damotech, North America’s leading rack safety partner, is pleased to announce key rack safety initiative this year at MODEX 2020.
 
Rack Safety Seminars Sponsorships
Charles Carbonneau, its Chief Engineer, will be presenting two on-floor seminars during the event in Atlanta, GA. The seminars, titled "Implementing an Effective Pallet Rack Safety Program" will be presented in Theatre I at the Georgia World Congress Center on Tuesday, March 10, at 1:30 PM and Thursday, March 12, at 10:30 AM, respectively.
 
Damotech's inspectors and rack experts are frequently asked about ways of implementing a rack safety program; where to start, what it involves, and how to proceed. Through these two sessions, Carbonneau will share simple strategies that can help warehouse operators and rack owners increase the safety of their racking systems. Carbonneau, a Professional Engineer, has over 25 years of experience in evaluating the rack structural integrity and conformity of racks.
 
Carbonneau's presentations will provide insight into the best practices used by top-notch facilities to reach their rack safety goals. Seminar attendees will leave with a better understanding of how to recognize rack safety hazards, limit liability and reduce the risk of accidents through the use of preventive measures like regular inspections, employee safety training, and the installation of guarding products. 
 
Increasing awareness and education about rack safety has become an area of focus for Damotech. “Pallet rack safety training can significantly lower the impact of incidents in the warehouse” and “by educating workers on the proper course of action when issues arise, warehouse safety is greatly improved” says Carbonneau. 
 
"Rack safety is a growing concern among our customers, and we are seeing an increase in demand for conformity inspections and safety training" says Marc Rousseau, Damotech’s VP of National Accounts, who will be on-hand in Damotech’s booth (#2219) to answer questions about rack safety. 
 
Live demos of its innovative rack inspection and maintenance platform
Since rack safety is a growing concern among warehouse operators, Damotech has created a software to help them manage pallet rack inspections and issues more efficiently. This innovative platform serves as a centralized solution to keep all documentation related to racks, up to date. It facilitates the sorting and reporting of deficiencies found during a conformity inspection of the racking systems. It ensures consistency in reporting across multiple facilities and the cloud-based software can be accessed from anywhere, on the web.
 
It's the ideal solution for multi-warehouse operations and an integral part of any rack safety program. 
Damotech will be showcasing this innovative rack inspection platform in its booth during MODEX 2020 and Charles Carbonneau will be speaking about it during his seminars.
