LOLER + PUWER + PSSR
Manufacturing and Engineering Inspection Services
Manufacturing and engineering sites usually need inspection evidence across machinery, lifting accessories, compressors, hazardous substances and maintenance access.
Local inspection enquiries are strongest around industrial estates in Glasgow, Glenrothes, Aberdeen, Dundee, Gateshead, Sunderland and the wider Scottish central belt.

Unplanned isolation, missing asset IDs and equipment unavailable during production often cause avoidable disruption.
What should manufacturing sites prepare?
Prepare asset lists, previous reports, maintenance windows, defect history and a site contact who understands equipment use.

Vehicle Lift LOLER Inspection
Vehicle lifts in garages and workshops sit at the overlap between lifting equipment condition, operator safety and clear workshop records.
Forklift Attachments, LOLER and PUWER
Forklift trucks, attachments and handling equipment can create mixed LOLER and PUWER duties depending on how the equipment is used.
Lifting Accessories, Slings and Shackles
Lifting accessories are small enough to be missed but safety-critical enough to create serious risk when damaged, unmarked or overdue.
Air Compressor PSSR Written Scheme
Compressed air systems are common in workshops and production sites, but the written scheme and examination evidence often lags behind equipment changes.
Boiler and Pressure System PSSR
Boilers and pressure systems need coherent written scheme evidence, safe operating limits and planned examination access.
Guarded Machinery PUWER Inspection
Machinery guarding and control condition often reveal whether a PUWER file reflects real operator risk or only paperwork.
