Cemex is one of the world’s largest building products suppliers and took the decision to retro-fit Wheelsure to its entire UK Aggregates fleet in the Summer of 2008. Just a little over 12 months later the project is complete and over 300 vehicles have been fitted throughout the UK.
At the recent MPA Awards, Cemex won a highly Commended award based on this safe wheels initiative and in the words used in their safety submission, “since fitting the locking device (Wheelsure), no incidents have occurred”, from a level of 18 incidents in 2007.
Wheel nut loosening/wheel loss is particularly prevalent in this type of industry and Cemex has proved itself an industry leader in establishing best practice in preventing accidents.
