Dear Victaulic partner,

Following Didier Vassal's previous email announcing Victaulic's Communication initiative, here is the first information bulletin that covers "Safety". We hope you will find it interesting and informative.

Safety is an ever increasing topic of importance in all of our businesses and managing safety-related costs has become the number one priority for many owners and contractors. Owners and contractors understand that the cost of injuries is a major factor in the total cost of construction. Failure to maintain a good safety record increases costs and reduces business opportunities.

The 12-Page Victaulic Safety brochure (as depicted left) is currently available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Dutch. This brochure addresses the growing concern of safety in the industry. The brochure not only outlines the inherent benefits of the Victaulic grooving method but also how Victaulic products promote indirect cost savings that are achieved through safer jobsites.

For free copies of this brochure please either reply to this email address or get in touch with your Victaulic contact who will be happy to discuss these issues with you.

The Victaulic grooved jointing system, with its flame free method, is the safest way to connect piping systems including valves and other apparatus. Victaulic, however, is not solely relying upon its jointing method to ensure safe installations; it offers a wide range of language specific installation manuals.

Victaulic on-site installation manuals include:
I-100 Field Installation Handbook – a page by page guide on how to install each Victaulic product correctly, safely and most economically
Grooving Tool Manuals – for each Victaulic Grooving machine
Fire Protection Device Manuals – for every Victaulic Device.

If you require copies of these literature items please email us at mktg@victaulic.be.

Victaulic Grooving Tools are of the highest quality and with Safety at the forefront of their design. All machines are manufactured and supplied in compliance with the European Machinery Directive 98/37/EC (A copy of the EC Declaration of Conformity is available for all machines upon request. The Declaration outlines Victaulic machines' compliance with 8.2a of the EC Directory 98/37/EC and the directives 91/368/EEC and 93/68/EEC and conformity with the relevant Essential Health and Safety Requirements)

Your suggestions as to how we can further improve Victaulic's commitment to safety are welcomed.
