Safety solutions for metal, mining and heavy industry

Protection for high-risk environments

Built to take the impact forces, dust, damp and poor sightlines of the toughest sites. Troax builds each solution around the forces, environment and risks it will actually face. The right protection for the conditions it works in.

Why the sector's leaders choose Troax

Safety is more than just protection. It is the foundation of performance. The Troax difference:

  • The industry's broadest safety portfolio, standard or tailored.

  • Durable and modular systems that are easy to specify, maintain and adapt.

  • Uptime safeguarded through safe access, maintenance and operational efficiency.

  • Expert support that stays with you for the life of your operation.

  • The trust of leaders like ArcelorMittal and Tata Steel.

  • 70+ years of expertise, 40+ countries and regional manufacturing that shortens lead times.

We speak furnace, forge and pit

  • Steel and rolling mills

    Where cranes, rolling machinery and heavy handling converge, the forces are highest. Our heavy-duty guarding, barriers and detection cover the lot.

  • Aluminium smelters and casthouses

    Around potlines and molten metal, the line between people and vehicles can't waver. Troax guarding and barriers hold it, with traffic management where sightlines are short.

  • Mining, surface and underground

    Few sites punish equipment such as a mine. Our Belt Conveyor guard and traffic management work through dust, grit, and damp.

  • Forge and press shops

    Heavy-duty guarding delivers the containment your plant demands, with quick-release access for fast, tool-operated maintenance.

  • Heavy fabrication and structural steel

    Cranes, large-scale welding and heavy handling increase risk. Guarding defines the zones, barriers protect infrastructure, detection covers the moving points.

  • Intralogistics and material handling

    Large vehicle fleets and people share the same ground. Our barriers define routes and corridors, while our collision avoidance and traffic management systems bring shared points under control.

The solutions forged to hold the line

  • Machine Guarding

    Between your people and the machinery, there's Troax. Our mesh guarding holds the line, keeping operators safe, and supporting compliance with the EU Machinery Regulation.

  • Barriers

    Troax safety barriers prevent collisions becoming serious incidents. Made from flexible polyethylene, they absorb the strike and flex with the impact, helping preserve your concrete, racking and machinery.

  • Industrial Traffic Management

    Keep your busiest points moving safely, without slowing the operation down. Troax Industrial Traffic Management manages access, guides flow and warns drivers and pedestrians where risk is highest.

Your plant runs for years. We're there for all of them

A plant can operate for decades, and we stay with it the whole way. As your machinery and layouts change over the years, our experts help you adapt, bringing deep knowledge of the solutions, your industry and your market, backed by local teams in over 40 countries.

A few questions we hear at every plant. Ask us more

Yes. Strong Fix is designed for high-impact applications, including forging shops, press shops and heavy fabrication facilities. It complies with the Machinery Regulation and EN ISO 14120, with full technical file documentation as standard.

In most cases, yes. Our modular systems require no structural work and can be installed around your operational schedules and maintenance windows. For continuous-process facilities, phased installation is standard practice, planned with your team to minimise disruption. Some tasks may still need a temporary exclusion zone or local pause, planned with you in advance.

Yes. Hot-dip galvanised and other corrosion-resistant builds are available for outdoor, wet, dusty, and high-humidity conditions common in mining, steel, and aluminium operations. Your local Troax team can specify for your facility’s exact requirements.

Yes. Our Collision Avoidance Detection system (CAS-G2) is built for dusty, poorly lit and obstructed conditions, warning drivers the moment workers enter a proximity or risk zone, regardless of sightlines.

Declarations of conformity, test reports and product specifications for every system we deliver. For machine guarding, this supports the Machinery Regulation technical file and CE marking declaration; for site-wide systems, it supplies the evidence ISO 45001 programmes require.
