The pulp and paper industry is a high hazard sector that typically
consists of paper making, converting and printing. There are a number
of exposures that can result in high value property losses and major
interruptions to the manufacturing process.
All require an understanding of the processes and what can go wrong
and measures to reduce these. The combustible nature of the materials
and manufacturing processes used by paper mills means that when fires
occur they are fast burning with potentially catastrophic consequences.
The location of paper mills, usually in remote areas, makes access
difficult and time consuming for the fire brigade and other emergency
services.
Our consultants have worked successfully with clients around the world
to identify, quantify and manage these exposures through a combination
of physical protection and the implementation of risk management loss
prevention systems and procedures.
