Draka, part of the Prysmian Group, has been a cable supplier in the Netherlands for over 110 years. With a focus on quality and customer orientation, Draka offers solutions for the construction and electrical wholesale industries. An important aspect of their business operations is the safety of employees and visitors. That is why Draka chose bhv-knop.nl, a system for company emergency response (BHV).

In a vast factory hall, summoning emergency response personnel can be a challenge. Draka had to find solutions to questions such as: How can emergency response personnel be summoned quickly and effectively? How can they easily sign in and out? And how can the presence of emergency response personnel be guaranteed?

BHV-knop.nl offers an emergency response call button that operates without complex procedures. In the event of an incident, emergency responders can be quickly alerted via a telephone system or the emergency response app. The app ensures that they are immediately informed of the situation, including the location and details of the call.

With the presence detection of BHV-knop.nl, managers always know who is present. This is done via kiosks placed at strategic locations and via the app, which automatically signs emergency response personnel in and out. This system improves not only response time but also overall safety in the workplace.

With the implementation of BHV-knop.nl, Draka Emmen has taken a step towards improving its emergency response processes. Focusing on speed and efficiency, this system ensures that employee safety is always guaranteed. BHV-knop.nl demonstrates that modern technology plays a crucial role in workplace safety.
