Warehouse inspection

Warehouse inspection

During a warehouse inspection, your warehouse is checked for safety. This annual inspection is important because it’s essential to provide your employees with a safe working environment. Furthermore, occupational health and safety legislation and the European EN 15635 standard “Steel storage systems – Use and maintenance of storage equipment” require warehouses to be inspected annually by an independent inspection company. An inspector from Helden van Staal will inspect all relevant aspects of your warehouse for various indicators, such as defects, damage, and unsafe situations.

During a warehouse inspection, the shelving and mezzanine floors, among other things, are professionally inspected. After the inspection, you will receive the inspection report by email with recommendations and any requirements. Helden van Staal will then prepare a free, no-obligation quote for you, including any necessary parts and repairs.

The importance of warehouse inspections

Warehouse inspections are crucial. If unsafe situations, damage, and defects in the warehouse are not repaired promptly, dangerous situations can arise. A warehouse inspection identifies these potential risks so you can take the appropriate measures. This prevents accidents. Our inspectors can inspect your entire warehouse, paying special attention to hazardous substances and materials.

An added benefit is that at Helden van Staal, we have insight into the structural calculations of the various racks and can therefore perform highly expert inspections. Repairs aren’t always necessary, and damage doesn’t necessarily result in costly replacement. The degrees of damage are precisely defined in European standards. After the warehouse inspection, you’ll receive an objective report, which you can present during an inspection by the Labor Inspectorate or an insurance company. That gives you peace of mind.
