Our expertise covers various catastrophes such as:

Food Manufacturing Plant Explosions

If your food processing or beverage plant houses an ammonia refrigeration system, an explosion is your worst nightmare. Because your facility is at risk for this type of emergency, it’s imperative to understand both the proactive and reactive measures you must take in the event of an explosion.

Proper maintenance and simple actions can prevent food plant explosions including:

  • Preventive maintenance (leak detection)
  • Mechanical integrity inspections
  • Explosion-proof motors and devices

Industrial Fires

Industrial fires can have severe consequences, but with proper prevention measures, emergency preparedness, and effective response strategies, the risks can be minimized, and the impact mitigated. Regular training, maintenance, and vigilance are essential to ensuring the safety and resilience of industrial facilities.

Industrial Warehouse Roof Collapses

By implementing preventive measures and having robust emergency response protocols in place, the risk of an industrial warehouse roof collapse can be minimized, and the impact on personnel and property can be mitigated. Regular maintenance, inspections, and adherence to safety standards are critical to ensuring the structural integrity and resilience of warehouse facilities.

Natural Disasters

Natural disasters can wreak havoc on a food processing facility, not only causing physical damage to the building, but also resulting in a huge economic loss in product and production downtime. Planning for a natural disaster has to be strategic and should include partners from your local emergency response teams, vendors and designated employees.

Your disaster response plan should begin with three activities.

At Stellar, we’ve helped many clients recover in the aftermath of hurricanes, tornadoes, and flooding. Restoring a facility to safe operating condition is the ultimate goal. Safety is the priority — both in terms of food safety and the wellbeing of the people inside the building.

When responding to a facility affected by a natural disaster, we:

  • Analyze the exterior envelope of the building to ensure it’s safe to reoccupy
  • Communicate with relevant municipalities regarding the building’s structural integrity
  • Provide redesign and construction services to repair damage
  • Seek out the materials needed to rebuild
