Inspection Priorities for Plymouth Sites
Racking here typically supports marine engineering and defence production, medical device manufacturing, composite materials and seafood processing.
- Chilled and frozen stores get particular attention at floor level, where condensate collects around baseplates and anchor bolts.
- Manufacturing and engineering stores often hold heavy, awkward or non-standard loads, so we check that load notices match the configuration actually installed.
- 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 Plymouth
Racking counts as work equipment under PUWER 1998. HSE guidance HSG76 and BS EN 15635 expect weekly in-house checks by a Person Responsible for Racking Safety plus at least an annual expert inspection — the part our SARI accredited inspectors deliver in Plymouth.
See our SEMA racking inspection checklist for the measured tolerances, or read what the HSE expects.
