Services
PUWER Inspections
We conduct comprehensive Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations inspections to ensure machinery safety compliance. Our engineers verify equipment suitability, maintenance records, and operational safety across industrial and construction environments. Our UKAS-accredited assessments identify risks and provide actionable recommendations for regulatory compliance.
LOLER Inspections
Our Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations examinations cover cranes, hoists, and lifting accessories. We perform statutory thorough inspections of tower cranes, mobile cranes, and construction hoists to ensure compliance with current safety standards. Our reports include detailed defect analysis and certification for continued safe operation.
PSSR Examinations
We provide Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 compliance examinations for minor pressure systems. Our engineers create written schemes of examination and perform statutory inspections to prevent hazardous failures. Our assessments ensure safe operation of industrial pressure equipment while meeting HSE requirements.
Magnetic Rope Testing
Our non-destructive magnetic rope testing verifies lifting equipment integrity through advanced electromagnetic analysis. This technology detects internal and external wire rope defects without disrupting operations. The objective testing method provides accurate remaining service life assessments for critical lifting applications.
