Effective Hose Maintenance Management
In environments like workshops and plant facilities, finding more innovative and efficient ways to manage hose systems couldn’t be more important. It’s about focusing on managing your asset and improving operational efficiencies, without worrying about product safety and reliability.
In industries like construction, mining, food and beverage, and chemical handling, establishing the correct hose connections is critical. Whether it’s underground air and water hoses, dust suppression hoses used with jackhammers in construction, or the conveyance of food and beverage items, precision is essential. If leaks, ruptured hoses, component wear or mechanical faults occur at any point, this is where Dixon comes into play.
