Oleon Sdn Bhd's line of business includes the manufacturing of industrial organic chemicals, and is one of the leading producers of oleochemicals with a manufacturing facility located in Port Klang, Malaysia.

In maintaining Olean’s high safety standard, they invited Leeden Sdn Bhd to propose a solution to prevent potential slip-and-fall hazards within their process plant.

We conducted an extensive site survey to understand the work environment, traffic frequency on each work area, types of cat-walk, stairs and cat ladders. In consultation with Olean’s safety and operation team, we proposed various anti-slip high traction systems from our principal brand Safeguard Technology.

Today, Oleon is equipped with a range of anti-slip walkway covers / cable covers / ladder rungs at various access areas where human traffic is most common. Our client is well pleased with the anti-slip, high traction improvement around the facility.
