Safety is paramount when it comes to hoisting and lifting work. This applies to our customers as well as to Mennens itself. That is why our colleagues in the workshop at our Dongen site have recently started working with three brand-new overhead cranes, manufactured by our colleagues in Groningen.

Is everyone in your workplace aware of the conditions for working safely with cranes and lifting equipment? There are still more accidents than necessary: every one is one too many. What's more, lifting can often be more efficient if we use cranes more effectively.

Recall of certain batches of the European Version of NEWTON harnesses manufactured in 2022 (references C073AA01 C073AA02), NEWTON FAST (references C073CA01 and C073CA02) and NEWTON EASYFIT (references C073EA00, C073EA01, and C073EA02) due to a nonconforming batch of FAST LT buckles that could lead to a fatal fall. Immediately stop using the harnesses affected by this recall.
