Pallet Racking Inspection Tiverton
Tiverton serves North Devon as a major textile paper packaging and agricultural engineering node requiring safety compliance. We cover Tiverton as part of our work throughout Devon in the South West. Each visit ends with a written report that lists every finding, its classification and what needs to happen next.
Industrial Areas and Transport Links in Tiverton
Locations we cover in Tiverton include Howden Industrial Estate and Tiverton Trade Park. Wherever your racking is installed, the inspection follows the same SEMA-aligned method. After the Tiverton visit you receive a written report listing each defect by location, with a photograph, its measured damage and a red, amber or green classification.
Inspection Priorities for Tiverton Sites
Every Tiverton inspection covers the whole installation, with particular attention to the following.
- 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.
- Any alterations made since the last inspection are checked against the original configuration.
Your Legal Duty in Tiverton
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 Tiverton. The same rules apply whether your Tiverton site is a single unit or a large distribution building.
