Rack Netting in warehouse

In a modern warehouse or service facility, safety is not optional. It is the foundation of efficient and reliable operations. At Eagle Material Handling, we understand that hazards exist in many forms: overhead, on the floor, in transit, in the aisles, and at the loading dock. Our complete product line of safety netting is designed to provide protection in every area where your team works. 


The Big Picture: Why Comprehensive Safety Netting Matters

When you look at a facility, you may notice the obvious risks such as lift trucks, high stacked pallet racks, or moving conveyors. Many of the most serious hazards are less visible: 


  • Items falling from racks into pedestrian zones 

  • Boxes slipping off conveyors and damaging equipment or injuring someone 

  • Open service bays or oil pits creating fall hazards 

  • Loading docks where trucks shift or cargo may fall 

  • Walkways, mezzanines, and open storage areas where items can drop unexpectedly 


These risks can lead to lost productivity, equipment damage, medical claims, regulatory penalties, insurance increases, and damage to your reputation. We believe safety should be proactive and built into the facility rather than added after an incident. 


One Company With Full Coverage

Here is how our products work together to provide complete protection throughout your facility: 


  • Rack Netting: Prevents items from falling off pallet racks, protecting staff, inventory, equipment, and floor space. 

  • EZ Bracket Systems: A fast installing variation of rack netting that provides strong protection with minimal disruption. 

  • Conveyor Netting: Catches items that fall from conveyors and helps maintain safe zones below fast moving equipment. 

  • Truck Netting: Protects workers from shifting loads during loading and unloading and prevents cargo from falling or moving unexpectedly. 

  • Barrier Netting: Ideal for mezzanines, walkways, open storage areas, and any location where containment is needed. 

  • Oil Pit Netting: Reduces fall risks in service pits, bays, or any floor level opening. 

  • Warehouse Curtains: Helps divide work zones, control debris, and improve safety in areas where falling or flying objects are a concern. 


What Full Facility Safety Looks Like

Picture a facility where every hazard zone is covered: 


  • Rack aisles include containment that keeps pallet loads from falling into work areas 

  • Conveyor lines have secure netting that prevents dropped items from causing injuries or equipment damage 

  • Service pits are protected with floor level netting that prevents falls without slowing down workflow 

  • Loading docks use netting and containment systems that protect workers from shifting or unstable cargo 

  • Mezzanines, elevated walkways, and open storage areas use barrier netting or curtains for overhead protection 


This approach provides more than isolated fixes. It creates a facility that is safe from end to end.
