This is Grain Bin Safety Week.
Every year, farmers, workers, and families are forever changed by grain bin entrapment incidents. The most important thing to understand is this:
Grain can act like quicksand.
It takes only seconds to become trapped.
It takes only minutes to become fully engulfed.
And once it happens, self-rescue is nearly impossible.
According to safety data highlighted during Nationwide’s Grain Bin Safety Week, many incidents occur when someone enters a bin to break up crusted grain or clear a blockage. What seems like a quick job can turn into a life-threatening situation without warning.
At The Grain Weevil Company, our mission is simple: keep people out of the bin and out of harm’s way. Because the safest way to survive a grain bin entrapment… is to never enter the bin at all.
Take the time. Use the right equipment. Protect yourself and the people who depend on you.
