Safety & Emergency Response
Safety is our top priority and an integral part of our culture. Through strict operating disciplines, we work towards our vision of protecting our people, community and environment from harm, in alignment with the Responsible Care® guiding principles. Incidents are rare, but the industrial complex where we operate has various mechanisms to alert the surrounding community in case of emergency.
Emergency Klaxon
All companies on the complex have a klaxon which is activated in case of an emergency. A warning siren will sound on for three seconds and then off for three seconds. Upon hearing the Klaxon, residents should go indoors, close doors and windows and other outlets that draw in outside air and stay inside until the all-clear signal is given. The all-clear siren is a continuous siren tone lasting one minute. The sirens for all companies on the industrial park are tested every Monday between 3pm and 3:30pm to help ensure residents are familiar with their sounds and to ensure they function properly.
Warn & Inform Telephone System
In addition, we encourage members of the community to register for our Warn & Inform telephone system, on-line via barry-registration.sendwordnow.eu/HomePage.aspx. Registered users will receive safety information in the event of a major emergency.
Message Line
During an emergency, a message line provides recorded status updates. This line can be reached on 020 3824 1912.
Safety Booklet
The Barry Industrial Complex issues a safety booklet detailing all information and hosts regular meetings with the Industrial Complex Community Advisory Panel. More information on both can be requested via phone at 0800 783 0187 or 01446 732350.
