Health and safety at work: the fleet car accessories you need

It doesn’t matter what business you are in, you will be familiar with the term “health and safety at work.” It may be on your mind even more this week on the World Day for Safety and Health at Work. You’ll also know that health and safety regulations have become more rigorous in recent years.  With good reason, every business owner wants to know that her employees are able to carry out their work in a secure environment. If you have a whole fleet of vehicles in your business (or even just 1 or 2) then Travall can help. We’ve got suggestions for vehicle-specific accessories that could be working hard for you. They’ll make the working day not only easier, but could help to protect your employees and your vehicles too.

Travall Guard for health and safety at work

The Travall Guard has been produced for over 30 years.  There are now models for over 900 makes and models of vehicle. Many people have viewed this item as simply a dog guard. Although that is an excellent use of the Travall Guard, it does have many others uses that make it a truly versatile accessory to own.  One of them is helping to protect workers while they are out on the road. Companies are realising the value of equipping their company cars with Travall Guards. The guard provides a barrier between work-related items in the boot and employees and/or customers travelling in the car. The guard also makes the most of every square centimetre of available boot space. In some situations this allows for use of a smaller vehicle, which helps to reduce fuel costs.  Adding the Travall Guard to your fleet could be a wise investment. For some businesses (such as taxi companies) it is now essential to have luggage barriers.  Without the barrier, taxi drivers are unable to meet the licensing regulations. The Travall Guard is the perfect solution to this dilemma as it is a rattle-free addition to the vehicle without the need to drill or modify the vehicle in any way. It’s especially ideal if you lease your company vehicles. 

Travall Mats for health and safety at work

If you regularly have customers getting in and out of your company car, you know it doesn’t take long for the inside of the car to get really dirty. Poor weather conditions, spilled coffee (or worse) all take their toll on the footwells of the car. Let’s face it, carpeting is not that easy to clean thoroughly and quickly. Once again Travall can help.  Travall’s vehicle-specific rubber car mats give the perfect fit in your cars without the price of dealership accessories.  They are made from a dense rubber that is moulded to have a lipped design. Any dirt or spills stay on the mat and away from your car’s carpet.  Cleaning them is a piece of cake, (even if dropped cake is the problem). Just wipe them down or jet wash them as needed. Each set of mats is designed for the make and model you drive.  They come with the necessary fitting clips where appropriate so the mats stay perfectly in place. You won’t find these mats slipping underfoot.

Travall Sillguards for health and safety at work

Another vulnerable area of any fleet car is the paintwork on the door sills.  Travall has come to the rescue by developing vehicle-specific sill guards to add additional permanent protection to this area.  Travall Sillguards are manufactured in stainless steel and are slightly thicker than competitor’s sill guards, which means they resist dents and corrosion and will continue to look good on your car. So whether you have steel-capped work boots or stilletos getting in and out of your car, you’ll know that the door sills have that all-important protection.
