The Client

RPC bpi protec is a manufacturer of flexible packaging in film, with seven sites across the UK and Romania. Serving a wide variety of businesses – from small independent specialists across a variety of sectors to many of the world’s biggest brands and retail outlets.

The Brief

With a number of new silos installed, RPC bpi protec required a competent specialist to conduct a Risk Assessment to determine what level of protection was required. Due to the high-risk nature of materials contained within, the client’s maintenance manager contacted Heightsafe to provide a solution.

The Solution

Following a site survey and risk assessment by Heightsafe’s specialist team, installation of class 3 antistatic Lightning Protection and Earthing systems were agreed with the client to ensure safe discharge and earthing in the event of a lightning strike.

The Outcome

Class 3 antistatic Lightning Protection and Earthing systems were fitted to a number of silos on the site, ensuring RPC bpi protec are protected and compliant with regulations.
