Palletline Secures 12th Gold Award for Health and Safety

Palletline has won its 12th Gold Award from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) for its commitment to embedding health and safety into every level of its operation.

With one of the lowest accident rates in the industry, Palletline was recognised for its robust workplace management systems and proactive approach to risk management.

To secure gold status, the network had to satisfy a demanding set of criteria assessing everything from workforce engagement and safety culture to accident records and health and safety management systems.

The company has pioneered a series of industry firsts, including becoming the first pallet network to introduce a 750kg weight limit for standard tail-lift deliveries where a manual pump truck is used – a measure since adopted across the wider transport industry.

Innovations such as drive-through warehouses, fully pedestrianised operations, one-way traffic systems and 10mph speed limits have all contributed to the company’s admirable safety record.

Carl Moore, group CEO of Palletline, said: 

“We are delighted to receive this prestigious RoSPA Gold Award once again.

“This recognition is a testament to every member of the Palletline team. In an industry where new challenges emerge every day, maintaining the highest standards of health and safety requires constant vigilance, continuous learning and a commitment from everyone across the business.

“We will never stand still when it comes to safety,” he added.

“We will continue investing in innovation, technology and best practice to build on the standards that have established Palletline as the UK’s leading pallet network for health and safety.”

The RoSPA Gold Award marks the second major health and safety accolade for Palletline in recent weeks.

The company was also Highly Commended for Safety Excellence at the Safety & Health Excellence Awards.
