Ensuring stable imprints quality in pad printing of decorative products from natural materials remains one of the key challenges of modern printing production. Indirect printing technology, despite its widespread adoption due to the ability to apply images to complex geometric surfaces, requires a comprehensive approach to controlling mul­tiple interconnected factors. This issue is particularly relevant for decorative wooden products, where traditional printing methods often prove ineffective due to the complexity of surface geometry and the specific properties of natural materials.

Applying the Ishikawa and the Bow-Tie techniques to identify root causes in a real-life passenger injury case while boarding a suburban train is examined, the effectiveness of existing control measures (barriers) is analyzed, and new ones are proposed in the article. The issue of enhancing passenger safety in suburban railway transport remains relevant despite the general downward trend in the number of railway incidents in Ukraine.
