Plant One Rotterdam is the top test facility for sustainable process technology in the Rijnmond region. Plant One fills the gap between laboratory and full-scale production. One of the organisation’s explicit aims is to stimulate and accelerate sustainable developments.
Gabriel Tschin, Managing Director of Plant One, talks about the role communication plays at his organisation. “We work with installations and innovations. Technical instructions needed for the test phase of a new installation are communicated via two-way radios between the panel operators, field operators and office workers. Effective monitoring is vital and direct communication is essential to that process.”
Safety
At Plant One, two-way radios stand for safety. Not only because they enable direct mutual communication, but also because of the Man Down function. The moment someone takes ill, a signal is sent to the control room and action can be taken.
