Thorough Examination is a statutory requirement for all industrial equipment under the LOLER  and    PUWER  regulations 1998. Importantly as a user it is your responsibility to ensure that any industrial equipment you or your company use carries a current report of Thorough Examination.

The legislation states that Thorough Examinations can only be carried out by a competent person and that person should not normally service or maintain the equipment being Examined. The competent person should be free from fear or favour to conduct the Examination and give a true an accurate description of any repairs, adjustments or replacements along with timescales for their completion or if required, remove the equipment from service until such time it is made safe.

TIS are fully independent, we do not hire, lease, sell, service or repair industrial equipment. We do not insure or have any other vested interest in the results of Thorough Examination or any of the other services we offer.
