Safe, efficient storage is crucial for smooth business operations. As specialists in engineering and warehousing systems, we can evaluate and optimize your pallet racks to guarantee their safety and functionality.
Our pallet racking inspection service ensures your storage systems are fully compliant with safety standards, giving you one less thing to lose sleep over.
When Should You Inspect Pallet Racks?
Pallet racking systems should be inspected at regular intervals. Depending on use, environmental factors, and load-bearing capacity, inspections can be scheduled quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. Our team can advise you on the right frequency for your operations.
Additional inspections should always be conducted after major events such as impacts, extreme weather, or structural modifications to ensure continued safety.
Why Should You Inspect Pallet Racks?
In Canada, worker safety is paramount, making regular pallet rack inspections crucial for ensuring the safety of your storage systems.
Routine pallet rack inspections help to:
- Identify potential risks of rack failure or deterioration
- Prevent accidents and injuries
- Ensure compliance with Canada’s strict safety standards, including CSA regulations for your specific work environment
During an inspection, our team ensures that your pallet racking systems comply with CSA standards for pallet racking systems in your working environment.
