Pallet Racking Inspection Tredegar

Tredegar supports heavy engineering and plastic extrusion requiring ongoing structural racking safety compliance. We cover Tredegar as part of our work throughout Blaenau Gwent in the Wales. Each visit ends with a written report that lists every finding, its classification and what needs to happen next.

Tredegar's Storage and Distribution Network

If you are based at Crown Business Park, Sirhowy Industrial Estate and Tafarnaubach or anywhere else in Tredegar, the inspection can be booked around your shift patterns. Load notices, beam locks and floor fixings are all checked during a Tredegar inspection, not just visible impact damage.

Inspection Priorities for Tredegar Sites

Some risks are common to the operations described above, so our Tredegar inspectors look closely at them.

• Busy pick faces and fast pallet turnover put the front uprights of every run at risk from truck strikes; we measure each dent and bow against the tolerance rather than estimating it.
• 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.
• Pallet condition and placement are noted where overhanging or damaged pallets put extra strain on beams.

Your Legal Duty in Tredegar

For Tredegar businesses, the legal position is the same as anywhere in the UK: PUWER 1998 places the duty on the employer, HSG76 sets the expectation of an annual expert inspection, and BS EN 15635 defines the damage tolerances used to classify each defect. The same rules apply whether your Tredegar site is a single unit or a large distribution building.

See our SEMA racking inspection checklist for the measured tolerances, or read what the HSE expects.
