We’re Heading to the 2026 Texas Warehousing Forum
There’s a persistent myth that safety and productivity pull in opposite directions, that every guard, protocol, or ergonomic fix is a tax on throughput. In practice, the opposite tends to be true. The facilities that run safest usually run smoothest.
That’s the conversation we’re bringing to the Texas Warehousing Forum on October 22nd.
At 10am, we’re hosting a panel on the most critical aspects of industrial safety, how to build systems that address them, and the real effect better safety has on production and efficiency. Less theory, more practical guidance, with time for your questions. See the full schedule here.
Who you’ll hear from
- Bryan Gauger, President and COO of Cisco-Eagle – Leading large-scale material handling and automation integration since 1996, and our representative to the Conveyor Equipment Manufacturers Association.
- Markus Green, Safety Automation Group Manager at Cisco-Eagle – More than thirteen years working hands-on across AisleCop production, site safety assessments, and system commissioning in plants and distribution centers nationwide.
- Erik Johnson, Director of Innovation at WireCrafters – A TÃœV-certified Functional Safety Engineer and ANSI B11 Licensed Machinery Safety Specialist who sits on several national safety standards committees.
- Ben Teitelbaum, Commercial Sales Training Manager at Southworth Products – Focused on the practical intersection of ergonomics, hydraulic positioning equipment, and operational efficiency.
While you’re there
Stop by our booth, number 15, to talk through whatever you’re working on, from safety and ergonomics to conveyor, storage, and automation. We’ll also be running a $100 raffle, so there’s a little extra reason to swing by.
If safety, ergonomics, and efficiency are on your mind heading into next year, this is a good hour to spend. We’ll see you on the 22nd.
