LIFTING APPLIANCES

A dedicated system for documenting and maintaining records of lifting appliances serves as a central database. It houses detailed information on inspections, maintenance, regulatory compliance, and related data. Related LSA equipment are also considered in our scope of work, like pilot ladders, embarcation ladders and review thorough inspection of marine descent untis.

Lifting Equipment Inspection Services

In accordance with the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER 98), it is mandatory for all lifting equipment to possess a valid Certificate of Thorough Examination. Additionally, the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER 98) stipulate that such equipment must be consistently maintained in a safe operational condition. To ensure workplace compliance and safety, enlisting the services of a specialized lifting expert is not only wise but also crucial.

The cornerstone of workplace safety lies in implementing a regular maintenance regimen coupled with thorough LOLER examinations. This approach not only safeguards the well-being of your team but also presents an opportunity to fortify productivity. Shielding against unexpected equipment failures is essential, not only for the safety of your workforce but also to proactively mitigate downtime, costly repairs, and potential damage to equipment and inventory.

Efficiency, compliance, and safety are paramount in this regard. Engaging an experienced lifting engineer for your Thorough Examination, as part of your ongoing maintenance plan, is a prudent choice. These professionals possess an in-depth understanding of your operational processes, adeptly identify wear patterns, and systematically schedule necessary work to ensure your operations continue efficiently and securely.

Our team of engineers is accredited and boasts extensive experience, having received training and qualifications from the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA). Their expertise extends beyond mere examination; they assist in determining the most suitable maintenance and examination schedule tailored to your unique workplace environment and patterns of use.

Our well-established methodology encompasses all forms of lifting equipment and working environments, aligning seamlessly with your obligations under LOLER 98 and PUWER 98. This approach provides us with a comprehensive overview of your equipment’s overall condition, enabling you to monitor and plan your maintenance requirements effectively. The result is absolute peace of mind, knowing that your equipment is compliant, dependable, and, above all, safe.

In conclusion, entrusting your lifting equipment inspection needs to experts ensures compliance, reliability, and safety. Our experienced professionals are dedicated to safeguarding your workforce and productivity, while also addressing the critical maintenance demands of your equipment

We strive to provide comprehensive solutions for the maritime industry’s lifting equipment and heavy load needs.

Offering Comprehensive Regulatory Solutions

Offering comprehensive regulatory solutions for lifting appliances, equipment, and life-saving appliances, we provide equipment, skilled labour, engineering expertise, rigorous testing, and convenient preventive maintenance options. Our aim is to ensure vessel safety and performance.

Life-Saving Appliances

Within Chapter III of the SOLAS Convention, you will find stipulations regarding life-saving appliances and their configurations. These include stringent criteria for lifeboats, rescue boats, and life jackets, all tailored to the specific type of vessel. Complementing these regulations is the International Life-Saving Appliance (LSA) Code, which provides explicit technical specifications for LSAs. This code becomes obligatory under Regulation 34, which mandates that all life-saving appliances and arrangements must adhere to the pertinent provisions outlined in the LSA Code.

Within the scope of these requirements, our expertise extends to conducting inspections on various components, such as lifeboats, davits, cranes, launching assemblies, release hooks, and more. Our goal is to ensure compliance and safety.

We are more than willing to propose a customized inspection protocol that aligns with your unique requirements.


ISM Code and Guidelines for Implementation

The primary objective of this Code is to set forth a global benchmark for the secure management and operation of maritime vessels, with a particular emphasis on preventing pollution.

This Code delineates specific safety management objectives and mandates the establishment of a robust safety management system (SMS).

Our services encompass offering expert advice and support in the effective implementation of a tailor-made SMS system that aligns seamlessly with your specific vessel. Additionally, we provide comprehensive training for key personnel regarding the Code’s resolutions and applicable amendments for various scenarios.


ISM Code Adherence Evaluations and Audits

The ISM Code, integrated into Chapter XI-2 of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), serves as a framework for enhancing maritime security through specialized measures. This Code consists of two distinct parts: one that is mandatory and another that is advisory. Its primary purpose is to ensure the safeguarding of maritime operations against security threats and acts of terrorism.

In particular, small marinas and ports of moderate size can take advantage of our auditing services, customized to meet their specific requirements. Our expertise plays a pivotal role in identifying and rectifying any deficiencies in ISPS Code implementation, thereby reinforcing maritime security. We are dedicated to ensuring that these facilities adhere to international safety standards, which, in turn, safeguards vessels and the individuals who depend on them.

Our approach centers on providing comprehensive guidance and support to ensure that small ports and marinas are well-prepared to address any maritime security threats effectively. With our experience and knowledge, we can assist these facilities in efficiently meeting the requirements of the ISM Code, contributing to a safer and more secure maritime environment.
