About Blue Safety Spot Lights

Pedestrian walkways and aisles can be hidden disasters waiting to happen. Busy warehouses, construction sites, and other workplaces can be a noisy environment to work in. Acoustic warning devices and flashing beacons is simply not enough to prevent forklift accidents. Something more is needed to make the workplace safer.

Blue Safety Spot Lights consists of two extremely bright, energy efficient and long lasting LED lights encased in a highly durable case. Mounted on the overhead guard, it projects highly concentrated blue lights far ahead of the forklift as a large spot. This gives pedestrians and other machine operators in the area a clear and early warning that the truck is approaching in their direction. The lights are either constantly left ‘on’ or flashing to attract optimal attention to people in the area.
