Is Your Storage System Safe : Racking Inspections
Pallet racking inspection is now a legal requirement but this is not the only reason you should have your racking inspected on a regular basis.A rack inspection is required under Health and Safety legislation on a regular basis.
Pallet racking is classified as 'Work Equipment' and therefore requires regular documented inspections.
Regular rack safety inspections can help reduce both insurance premiums and maintenance costs.
You may have no choice if required by an insurer, Health and Safety Officer, following a warehouse accident, or even a rack collapse.
Investigation into the causes of damage results in improved operating methods, damage reduction, and reduced maintenance costs.
Racking Inspection Services can assist in the development of internal inspection and recording systems
