Safety in the Waste Industry with Brigade 

All round vehicle visibility for safer more efficient operations 

Driving a waste and refuse vehicle can involve several risks and potential dangers. These vehicles can be challenging due to the size and weight of the vehicle and the substantial blind spots this includes. Waste and refuse drivers have to maneuver with limited room in tight residential streets, along with the added pressures of impatient drivers and working under tight schedules.

By working in partnership with Brigade to understand your safety concerns, the NEWCOM team of engineers strives to bring innovative answers to the marketplace. Make a small investment in Brigade’s safety solutions to achieve measurable benefits as shown below.

Camera systems are a vast improvement on the many mirrors needed to view waste and refuse vehicle blind spots. Mirrors themselves create further blind spots and ‘information overload’ for drivers who don’t know where to look first. This is particularly difficult for waste and refuse truck drivers, as they need to be alert and aware of their surroundings at all times, especially when driving through busy urban areas where there are many pedestrians and vehicles on the road.

With the Backeye 360, it allows multiple camera images to be viewed on a single monitor with dedicated views triggered by, for example, reverse gear. Cameras provide a wider angle of view than mirrors and are less likely to be damaged, while built-in LED’s offer superior visibility in low light conditions.

Vehicle CCTV systems are used in a wide range of on- and off-road applications to meet a host of health and safety and legislative requirements. They can eliminate blind spots to prevent costly vehicle damage and, more importantly, save lives.
