Off-site Facility Tour At Crown Cork And Seal

This morning, Hanover Fire and Penn Township Fire “C” Shift attended an off-site facility tour at Crown Cork and Seal located on Broadway in Penn Township. At the request of the facility safety supervisor, he wanted the fire department to come out to review permit-required confined space equipment. We also took the time to review fire safety features such as fire department connections to support the building’s sprinkler system, fire hydrant locations, and other fire safety features of the building. This type of pre-planning allows crews to get a look at these features should an emergency arise at the facility. It is often said that “When the moment of truth arrives, the time for preparation has passed”. These types of visits allow us to prepare should our services be needed.

* Note: this facility requires all visitors to wear safety vests, hair nets, hearing protection, eye protection and gloves when touring their facility.
