E.E: What are the ranges of products traded?
STOMMPY: It would be most correct talking about applications, in sense that customers approach to the impact safety systems starting from their need, for example: how to protect a sliding door, a wall, a pallet-racking, a machinery, a pedestrian walkway, etc. and for each one of these applications, our safety specialists, evaluating mass and speed of the vehicle used in the area (trolley or pallet-jack or forklift) can scientifically calculate the related impact energy value, matching with the most effective product to resist at such energy level.
This is a completely different approach to the market, scientific and professional, that STOMMPY® is very proud to push ahead and customers to appreciate it very much, since that it is a crucial point to transform the expense of buying impact safety barriers from a cost to an investment and in important asset for the customer’s company.

If for passive anti-collision safety in the company, STOMMPY® already offers the best existing on the market in terms of Impact Safety Barriers, today it takes another great leap forward, developing a system of constant dialogue between barriers and its users, effectively inaugurating first the era of SAFETY 4.0 in passive anti-collision safety systems.
What is S.M.A.R.T. ® system – Safety Monitoring & Active Reporting Technology
It is the help that was missing and that will allow the managers in the company to better manage safety and to effectively govern the passive safety systems in the company and to minimize the costs deriving from damage due to collisions of forklifts against the infrastructures, such as walls, doors, pallet-racks, machinery and even more to raise the level of safety and protection for workers.
With new S.M.A.R.T. ® technology, STOMMPY® has inserted a small artificial intelligence inside its impact safety bollards, which acts as an always alert sentry, and is able to communicate in real time its efficiency status through Customer wi-fi net and thanks to a proper S.M.A.R.T. app installed on his computer, tablet or mobile phone, giving him the possibility to go on place and check the maintenance need, collecting data for statistics or to analyse the internal logistics.
E.E: At what stage is the market in which you are currently active?
STOMMPY: The awareness to have a safety workplace is becoming a must in every Country; even the governments have realized that the cost of missing safety on workplaces are high and are going up even more every year and not under control; basically it is not only an economic budget issue for the Country, but it is a social problem as well.
