Arie van Lagen, Quality coordinator
Safty first
Arie van Lagen, Quality coordinator: “We distinguish ourselves through innovation. My position as Quality, Occupational Health and Safety and Materiel (quality) coordinator is an example of this: we put safety first, especialy if you work at heights and with machines. I keep my finger on the pulse and, among other things, ensure that the machines are inspected on time.
VIAVAC keeps promises
Quality is important to us. That’s why we ended up at VIAVAC. They are not the cheapest, but they do and deliver what they say. The price is in good proportion to the quality. In fact, we always want to have machines that do the job, because just imagine the costs you will incur if a machine fails or is not at the construction site on time.
Because VIAVAC is easily accessible for various questions and can deliver quickly from their own stock, we have completely switched to VIAVAC hoisting equipment. The service plays an important role in this. They think along with us and carry out extra safety checks beforehand. At the start of a rental assignment they always ask how long the panels are and what the profiling is, in order to deliver the right machine.
I’ve never seen anything going wrong. That’s why I regularly recommend VIAVAC to others
All our cranes are fitted with VIAVAC lifting equipment
Our own cranes are all equipped with VIAVAC lifting equipment and we hire special configurations. For large renovation jobs with hired cranes, we hire an extra suction cup that can be used by all cranes and assembly teams. The double vacuum circuit works very conveniently. The only improvement I can think of is the weight: an even lighter device would be useful for some jobs
