In the realm of industrial safety, few stories stand out as strongly as the transformation of Mr. Marcel Mercier’s modest 1980 workshop into a state-of-the-art factory for finished flooring. The Drummond plant, recognized for its advanced automation and precision machinery, exemplifies a commitment to innovation and operational safety at every level. At Drummond, safety isn’t a mere checklist item—it’s a core operational principle.

Raising the Bar in Safety Standards

The plant’s focus on safety reached new levels with the establishment of an innovative lockout program. Lockout procedures are essential in preventing machinery from accidentally activating during maintenance, shielding workers from potential risks. Drummond’s initiative illustrates a proactive approach to maintaining a safe workspace, setting a benchmark in the industry.

Partnering with EZSecur for Advanced Safety Solutions

A pivotal moment in Drummond’s journey was their strategic alliance with EZSecur, a leading provider of specialized safety equipment. With EZSecur’s expertise in lockout solutions, the Drummond plant implemented lockout cabinets specifically tailored to meet their rigorous safety requirements. This partnership moved beyond compliance, raising the bar for industrial safety standards.

Custom Lockout Cabinets: Practical and Durable

EZSecur’s lockout cabinets, designed with Drummond’s exacting specifications in mind, were a game-changer:

  • Dustproof Design: Ensures longevity in demanding industrial settings.
  • Transparent Fronts: Allows instant visibility of cabinet contents.
  • Generous Capacity: Accommodates large padlocks and varied lock sets.
  • Integrated Storage: Holds barcode lock cards and instructional booklets securely.
  • Clear Identification: Facilitates quick and safe access in emergencies.

Emphasizing Ergonomics for Enhanced Safety

These cabinets weren’t just functional—they were ergonomically designed to be accessible and user-friendly, especially in urgent situations. Ergonomics in safety equipment fosters ease of use, critical during emergencies and daily operations alike. This attention to detail underscores Drummond’s dedication to employee well-being and operational excellence.

A Legacy of Safety and Innovation

Under the leadership of Mr. Marcel Mercier, the Drummond plant’s journey from a small workshop to a flooring industry leader serves as a model for others. Through the collaboration with EZSecur and the adoption of customized lockout solutions, the Drummond plant reaffirms the power of prioritizing safety alongside innovation.
