New docs/crane-workshop-tours.md: a 5 t single-girder EOT crane over the whole production compartment (stops at the warehouse fire wall), a machine door and crane-served workshop/machine bay at the ramp end, and a glazed ground-level visitor corridor along the car-park elevation with stations in process order, its own air and acoustic glazing so tours need no PPE. Covers what each changes in the shell (crane-ready frame, hook height under the 7.0 m eave, no full-height cross walls in the crane zone, room lids and crane hatches), safety, costs and open decisions. Propagated: construction RFQ (crane-ready frame, new section 1c, machine door, accessible 1:12 entrance now required), scale zone table (+210 to 280 m2, total ~1,400 to 2,000 m2), facility security, worker safety, roadmap items 9 and 15, total investment added-scope table, README.

Worker Safety
Worker safety is a founding priority, on equal footing with the environmental commitments:
- Safety training: proper, structured training for all operators and maintenance staff, starting with the vendor-led commissioning training and extending into an ongoing in-house program. The pressing line combines hydraulics (~180 bar), saturated steam (10 bar / 180 °C), and hot PVC, and every one of these demands trained, deliberate handling.
- Clean rooms for galvanics: silvering and stamper electroforming will run in dedicated clean rooms with controlled access, proper ventilation and exhaust, and decontamination procedures for people and equipment leaving the area. Plating chemistry stays inside its containment.
- Personal protective equipment: appropriate PPE (overalls, gloves, goggles, and process-specific protection) is mandatory per work area, in line with the equipment vendor's site requirements (exhaust work benches, fire protection) and local regulations.
- Lifting and machine service: the overhead crane needs trained operators and slingers, a lift plan for every machine move, and the periodic engineer inspections Thai law sets for cranes. A machine is only disconnected and lifted after lockout: electrical isolation, steam vented, hydraulics depressurised including the accumulator. Welding and grinding stay in the workshop's hot-work corner under a permit. Detail in crane, workshop and tours.
- Visitors never share the floor's hazards: tours run in a glazed corridor with its own air and no PPE requirement.
Safety infrastructure (training program, clean-room specification, decontamination workflow) will be planned alongside the equipment, not after it.
