A Limpet L5 system has been installed at the Bechtel dairy facility in Schwarzenfeld, Germany. The dairy stores its product in an enormous, low-oxygen high-racking facility. The reduced level of oxygen is designed to lower the risk of fire, but it also increases the exertion required by workers to climb the 30-metre ladders that run up the side of the storage racks. In the event of an emergency, it would also make rescuing an unconscious casualty difficult. Limpet Technology's expert partner Bornack GMBH, saw an opportunity to improve the situation through the provision of Limpet powered climb assist and rescue systems and the unit was successfully installed into the facility in January 2018.
