Share the new ‘Grain Bin Safety Saves Lives’ flyer

The National Grain and Feed Association (NGFA) has created an easy-to-share flyer on the importance of adhering to grain bin safety procedures to prevent potential grain engulfments and entanglements. This flyer, which is preceded by a short cover letter, is being shared with all NGFA member companies. The flyer includes best practices for safe grain bin entry and implores anyone working around grain bins to adhere to basic safety precautions if they find it necessary to enter a bin.

NGFA members are encouraged to share this document internally with employees and contractors. Importantly, it’s also intended to be useful for you to distribute by email or mail to your farmer-customers to keep them and their families safe. Consider making copies as handouts for farmer-customers when they visit your office (post-COVID-19) or to hand to them when they deliver grain.

Save and share: Access the “Grain Bin Safety Saves Lives” flyer. It’s also available on NGFA’s website at ngfa.org/safety. 

Customize: If you’d like to customize the flyer with your company’s logo: Download and save the document as a pdf, then hover your mouse and click the top right corner of the first page to easily insert your logo. If you have questions, contact sgonzalez@ngfa.org. 

The NGFA, with financial support from its Foundation, has developed this flyer and other valuable safety guides that are free to anyone and available at ngfa.org/safety. Contact jseibert@ngfa.org or jmccluer@ngfa.org with safety and regulatory compliance questions.

Thanks in advance for joining us by committing to grain bin safety, and for sending this flyer and cover letter far and wide!
