Training at Inglenorth: Forklift and Crusher Courses Passed

At Inglenorth, safety and skill are at the core of everything we do. As a demolition contracting company, we rely on our team being trained to operate machinery safely and efficiently. Recently, some of our operatives completed key training courses for both Forklift Trucks and the Crusher A42.
Forklift Truck Training
Several members of our team including Stephen Ashworth, John Shannon, Martyn Hodkinson, Michael Smith, Michael Dickinson, and Sean Smith completed a full Forklift Truck training program. The course included both theory and practical sessions.
The training covered:
✅ Safe operation of the forklift
✅ Load handling and stability
✅ Site safety procedures
Practical exercises were completed on site to give team members hands on experience in real working conditions. This ensures our operatives can operate forklifts safely and efficiently during day to day demolition work.
Crusher A42 Training
Ben Derbyshire and David Wood completed the Crusher A42 training course which included both theory and practical elements.
The training focused on:
✅ Safe operation and manoeuvring of the crusher
✅ Pre use checks and maintenance techniques
✅ Theory testing to reinforce knowledge of safety and operational procedures
This course ensures our team can operate the crusher safely while maintaining productivity and reducing the risk of downtime.
Why Training Matters
Demolition work involves high risk equipment and processes. By investing in training, Inglenorth ensures that:
✅ Our team operates safely and confidently
✅ Equipment is used efficiently and maintained correctly
✅ Projects are completed to a high standard
Training is not just a requirement it is a key part of how we maintain safety, professionalism, and efficiency on every site.
At Inglenorth, we continue to invest in our team’s skills so that we can deliver safe, reliable, and high quality demolition services.
