PACTA EHS / OHS

PACTALAB is dedicated to meet EHS/OHS-requirements of all companies.
  • Safety must be uncompromised (exposures, material handling)
  • Environmental issues must be addressed: Energy savings (HVAC) and safe handling of vapors, spills and waste.
  • Ergonomics is important, as monotonous, repetitive work may impact health
  • Corporate rules differ, and especially focus on ergonomic issues differ from country to country, company to company. However many multinational companies search for a corporate standard, common for all countries – also because staff commute, expats transwork.
    Therefore PACTALAB offers different configurations, including height adjustable solutions and socket mounted solutions.
