Client challenges and operational risks
Identifying a potential dropped object is one step. Exposed work areas may also need physical protection, exclusion zones and controls suited to the objects, drop height and activities involved.
Our specialist services
Stop Drop Barricading
BLH-DOM’s product area for physical protection and barrier solutions. Product selection and application need to be assessed against current manufacturer documentation.
Dropped object protection systems
Barriers and containment measures are considered alongside equipment securing, work planning and exposure control. A barrier does not replace prevention at the source.
NorthQ’s own specialist role
NorthQ can support DROPS surveys, risk assessment and definition of functional requirements. These specialist services are distinct from the manufacturer’s product responsibilities.
Product and installation responsibilities
Distribution, engineering, testing, installation and maintenance responsibilities must be agreed separately. This website does not establish a specific distributorship or installation approval.
Typical projects and applications
Relevant environments include offshore platforms, vessels, yards and industrial work areas exposed to dropped objects. Netting or other industrial safety barriers should only be specified where documented performance and local conditions suit the assignment.
Scope and deliverables
Our support can include a description of risk areas, assessment of exposure and a requirements basis for product discussions. BLH-DOM’s own specifications and agreed responsibility boundaries govern the product delivery. Consult the official BLH-DOM website for current product information.
