From fire risk assessments to ongoing compliance support, we cover everything a warehouse needs to stay safe and on the right side of the law. Here is how we can help.
All services
DSEAR assessments
If your site stores or handles flammable or explosive substances, DSEAR places clear duties on you. We assess your processes and substances, identify hazardous areas and give you a practical plan to control the risk of fire and explosion.
Racking and SEMA inspections
Damaged racking is one of the most common and most dangerous hazards in any warehouse. Our independent inspections identify damage, overloading and installation issues before they lead to a collapse and give you a clear record of what needs to be put right.
Health and safety audits
A thorough audit shows you exactly where you stand. We review your site, systems and documentation against current requirements, then give you a prioritised report so you know what to tackle first.
COMAH support
For sites that fall under the Control of Major Accident Hazards Regulations, the stakes and the paperwork are high. We provide specialist support to help you meet your obligations and demonstrate control of major accident hazards.
Risk assessments and method statements (RAMS)
Generic templates do not protect anyone. We write clear, site-specific risk assessments and method statements that reflect how your work is really done so your teams can follow them and your records stand up to scrutiny.
Manual handling
Manual handling injuries are common in warehousing and largely preventable. We assess the tasks that carry the most risk and provide practical training and controls to reduce injuries and lost time.
Fire door inspections
A fire door only works if it is properly fitted and maintained. We inspect your fire doors, identify defects and give you a clear record of their condition and what needs attention.
Training
We deliver practical, warehouse-focused training that your teams will actually remember and use. From manual handling to fire awareness, we tailor sessions to your site and your risks.
Ongoing compliance support
Compliance is not a one-off. With ongoing support, you get a safety partner who keeps your assessments current, flags what is coming up and is on hand when you need answers. Nothing slips through the cracks.
