What National Safety Month Means for Our Team at Air-tow

Every June, businesses and organizations across the country recognize National Safety Month. It is a time to spotlight the importance of safety in the workplace and beyond. At Air-tow Trailers, safety is much more than a seasonal focus. It’s a core value woven into our operations year-round. This month offers an opportunity to pause, reflect, and recommit to keeping our team, our customers, and our products as safe as possible.

A Culture Built on Safety

At Air-tow, safety begins the moment someone walks through our doors. From the shop floor to the office, every employee shares a responsibility to work safely and look out for one another. In fact, we reinforce this commitment through hands-on training programs, proactive safety policies, and ongoing communication across departments.
 
Additionally, whether it’s following proper lifting techniques, inspecting tools and machinery, or wearing the right personal protective equipment (PPE) like safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection, our team takes the necessary steps to protect themselves and those around them. For our welders and fabricators, that means using proper gear, including flame-resistant jackets, gloves, and certified helmets, to ensure maximum protection while working at high temperatures and sparks.

Putting Safety into Action

Air-tow puts safety into action through several key practices that reinforce our commitment every day:

Thorough Employee Training: We equip our team with hands-on instruction in proper lifting techniques, machine handling, and jobsite awareness. Every new hire completes a detailed orientation, followed by regular refresher training to keep safety top of mind throughout their career.

Daily Safety Checks: Our team conducts routine inspections and follows detailed checklists to keep workspaces clear of hazards and running smoothly.

Open-Door Safety Policy: We actively encourage employees to speak up about safety concerns—no red tape, no hesitation, just honest communication to keep everyone protected.

Innovative Products Designed for Safer Use

Our dedication to safety starts with how we design our trailers. Air-tow engineers each product with innovative features that actively reduce risk and make operation easier for every user. These include:

Ground-Level Loading: This feature removes the need for dangerous ramps or tilt-beds, cutting down fall risks and equipment strain.

Stable Suspension System: Our proprietary swing-arm axle system delivers a smooth, level ride, reduces load shift, and prevents accidents on the road.

Heavy-Duty D-Rings & E-Track Systems: These built-in securement points lock equipment in place during transit, keeping cargo stable and secure.

Ultimately, every Air-tow model reflects our goal of making hauling easier, safer, and more efficient for our customers.

Looking Ahead

National Safety Month is a great reminder of why we do what we do. However, the commitment to safety continues all year long on the production line, on the road, and everywhere our trailers go. Air-tow will continue to evolve, improve, and lead with safety at the forefront of everything we do. From how we build our trailers to how we support our people, safety remains our top priority.
