Grant Money for Safety Improvements

This past year American Warehouse Systems has been working closely with MN Workplace Safety Council to promote their Safety Products Grant Program. The program allows companies to apply for FREE money for the purchase, maintenance or education that improves the employee’s safety.
Our local allied sales representative, Paul Brandes worked closely with Brian Knapp, from Capital Safety to apply for the grant and to design new wire decks for their pallet rack system. Wire decking installed properly will prevent loose products from falling off open pallets stored in the system, in turn protecting the employees from falling objects. The $10,000 in matching funds was reimbursed to Capital Safety once the product was received and the proper documents were submitted. Mr. Knapp found the process simple and looks forward to more free money when his company becomes eligible again.
