Protect Mill Crews and Forestry Teams Through Winter Conditions
Forest products and paper operations run in some of the toughest winter environments anywhere. From icy log yards and chip piles to frozen walkways around pulp processing units, winter creates high risk footing for every role on site. Workers move across wet concrete that freezes overnight, snow packed catwalks, icy metal grating, truck scales and outdoor storage zones where traction is unpredictable.
A single slip can lead to serious injury, equipment disruption, production delays and costly claims. At Winter Walking, we do not just sell ice cleats. We help forest products and paper mills implement traction solutions aligned with mill workflows and forestry field demands, keeping crews safe and production stable through snow, ice and freeze thaw cycles.
Why Forest and Paper Mills Choose Winter Walking:
- Built for Log Yards, Mill Grounds and Industrial Surfaces
Forestry and paper sites include rough outdoor terrain, icy gravel lanes, frozen bark and chip buildup, metal catwalks and slick concrete pads. Our traction solutions are selected for grip on mixed industrial surfaces common in mills and yards. - Supporting Continuous Production and Material Handling
Mill crews, maintenance teams, yard operators and truck traffic keep moving regardless of weather. Slips slow operations, pull people off the floor and add avoidable downtime. A traction program helps reduce incidents so throughput remains consistent. - Reliable Grip in Wet and Freeze Thaw Zones
Paper and pulp operations produce moisture and steam that condense on floors and exterior walkways. Winter turns those damp zones into polished ice. Our ice cleats provide confident traction where water, frost and ice overlap. - Aligned with Safety Metrics and Industrial Standards
Forest products facilities track safety KPIs closely because the environment is already hazardous. Adding winter traction support improves incident rates, reduces recordables and strengthens overall winter readiness.
