Press Room: Stocksigns helps quarry meet safety requirements

Stocksigns helps quarry meet safety requirements

A Somerset quarry has ensured safety for its staff and compliance with regulations after approaching signage expert Stocksigns.

Site signs at quarry

Torr Works quarry, a limestone quarry on the Mendip Hills, had two requirements: new health and safety signage for a building which had undergone a change of use, coupled with new signage for the site covering road signs, speed limits and wayfinding. Both sets of signage were to ensure a safe and compliant environment for staff and visitors and despite the scale of the project, lead times were short.

Stocksigns was able to provide the complete and timely solution that covered all aspects of the project, from site survey to design, production and installation of all the necessary signage.

Within a week of contact, the company’s experienced Survey Manager undertook a comprehensive site survey and produced a detailed scheme of works and full quotation. This included full risk assessment and method statements to ensure safe practice of work when the installation team was on site.

The quote was accepted and Stocksigns proceeded to production with its standard health and safety signs. For the bespoke custom made signs, the in-house graphics team generated a detailed artwork proof and this was duly approved by the customer. Production was completed in seven days, ahead of schedule.

The signs were then transported to Somerset and over the course of four days the highly skilled and experienced Stocksigns installation team installed the signage. Guided by the detailed Survey Scheme, installation was promptly completed.

Stocksigns successfully completed the project on time and within budget. Aggregate Industries was delighted with the outcome, with James Ashman commenting: “Stocksigns met the challenge set before them and we wouldn’t hesitate in referring them for future works.”

Stocksigns takes pride in its knowledge of signage and the skill sets the company has developed over the past 60 years. Ensuring that large customers, like Aggregate Industries, can come to the company with confidence is of paramount importance.
