RAMS Boards
RAMS boards give a site one fixed place to post its risk assessments and method statements, so the safety documentation stays organised, current and in front of the people doing the work. Each board keeps the documents protected and in plain view, and gives the whole workforce the same version of the site rules and safe working methods.

HERMEQ holds permanent UK stock of temporary protection products for every surface, from Correx and heavy duty boards to self-adhesive films, door and sanitaryware protectors and dust containment. The heavy duty polypropylene board has a honeycomb structure that resists crushing and impact, and it is a lighter alternative to hardwood or plywood sheets.
