Testimonials
"We appointed Storage Equipment Safety Service to conduct racking inspections in 1997, on an annual basis, at all our distribution sites throughout the UK and Ireland. SESS offer a completely independent view concerning racking safety. The inspection are now part of the Paperlinx Health and Safety regime. In addition, they assist us in compliance with the Health & Safety At Work Act (1974) and Provision & Use of Work Equipment Regulations (1998). The Inspections and subsequent reports have also allowed us to highlight causes of damage so that action can be taken to prevent ongoing impact and effectively reduce repair costs".
Mr Nigel Jennings, PaperLinx Europe Health & Safety Manager - Year 2000

"We have used SESS to carry out racking safety inspections at many of our 26 warehouse and distribution sites around the UK. It has been very useful to be able to have a 'one-stop shop' who take care of all the arrangements and provide timely and straightforward reports on racking condition to both local and national management. We have been impressed too, with the approach taken by their administrative people in Newcastle. They do what they say they are going to do and keep us advised throughout the whole process. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to any company who requires clear, unbiased advice concerning all aspects of storage racking safety."
Mr Mike Hann, Health & Safety Manager, Antalis, Basingstoke - Year 2000
