Fire crews called to Coleman and Company recycling facility.
An employee at a concrete recycling company in Meriden had to be airlifted to hospital after his arm became trapped in machinery last week.
Fire crews were called to Coleman and Company in Cornets End Lane at 11.30am on November 8 to free the man whose arm was caught between a conveyor belt and metal roller at the concrete recycling site.
Paramedics treated the worker’s multiple fractures before he was airlifted to a hospital in Coventry.
A West Midlands Fire Service spokesman said: “The concrete crusher was isolated and, in conjunction with paramedics at the scene, we administered first aid and used small tools to safely release the man’s arm from the machine. It was safely completed within half an hour.”
