Rack & Safety Inspections
Key Benefits
Completely independent, no affiliation to manufacturers.
S.E.M.A trained auditors.
Work with you to achieve maximum cost effective results.
We are pleased to announce that we have launched an independent one stop total solution for rack inspection, training and maintenance. The OPS Partnership service offers customised cost effective solutions to ensure that your installation has a high level of safety to within the HSE
guidelines.
Health & Safety Guidelines
This guidance is intended for users and managers in retail
and wholesale warehouses for enforcing health and safety
legislation in them.
In general, racking is manufactured from relatively lightweight materials and, as a consequence, there is a limit to the amount of abuse that it can withstand. The skill of the lift truck operators has a great bearing on the amount of damage likely to be caused. Any damage to racking will reduce its load carrying capacity. The greater the damage the less its strength will be, until it will eventually collapse, even when supporting its normal working load.
To ensure that a racking installation continues to be serviceable and safe it is recommended that regular planned inspections of the racking are carried out by a competent person.
Capabilities
We will undertake a comprehensive rack inspection audit to S.E.M.A standards. The audit will highlight issues for immediate action if health and safety is at risk.
Spares and repairs
Your independent rack inspection may highlight a need to replace damaged parts or potential improvements to your storage equipment.
Some of these parts may be obsolete or difficult to procure. We can source these on your behalf. These can be standard items or specials specifically designed for your applications.
