Pallet Racking Inspection Oxford
Pallet racking in Oxford carries the stock of businesses working in automotive manufacturing, life sciences and biotech storage and high-tech instrument distribution. Rackstor Safety Inspections provides SEMA-aligned racking inspections across the city, carried out by SARI accredited inspectors and reported in writing so you can show your racking is being managed.
Oxford's Storage and Distribution Network
Storage activity in Oxford is concentrated around Oxford Business Park, Horspath Road Industrial Estate and Unipart Logistics Hub, served by the M40 J8, J8A, J9, A34, A40 and A4142. We regularly plan inspection visits around these locations.
Racking Risks Typical of Oxford's Industries
Typical Oxford customers work in automotive manufacturing, life sciences and biotech storage and high-tech instrument distribution.
- High-throughput logistics means constant forklift traffic, so impact damage to uprights, bent beams and missing beam locks are the findings we look for first.
- Heavy parts and irregular stock put strain on beams, so we check deflection against the Span/200 limit and confirm pallets are sitting correctly on the beam line.
- Sensitive and high-value products make any racking failure costly, so our report gives a prioritised repair list the site can act on straight away.
Your Legal Duty in Oxford
An annual expert inspection is how Oxford sites show they are meeting PUWER 1998 and HSE guidance HSG76. We measure damage against the BS EN 15635 tolerances and classify each finding green, amber or red in line with the SEMA Code of Practice.
See our SEMA racking inspection checklist for the measured tolerances, or read what the HSE expects.
