Racking
Inspection

MPCSystems-theprocess-05

At MPC Systems, we know safe storage is smart business. Racking may look simple, but it plays a vital role—supporting heavy loads above your team every day. That’s why maintenance and regular inspections are essential.

Racking is legally classed as work equipment under PUWER and the Health and Safety at Work Act. You're responsible for keeping it safe—this means clear load notices, proper pallet use, trained staff, and damage reporting.

With daily wear, forklift knocks, and shifting loads, a structured inspection routine is a must.

SEMA Approved

MPC Systems follows a three‑step racking inspection process to keep your warehouse safe and compliant. Staff report visible damage, trained team members carry out routine checks, and certified experts complete full inspections annually or bi‑annually.

Our SEMA Approved Racking Inspectors (SARIs) conduct detailed assessments of layout, load compatibility, and system configuration to ensure every installation meets recognised safety standards. Using a clear traffic‑light system, issues are categorised as:

  • Red – immediate danger requiring urgent action
  • Amber – repairs needed soon
  • Green – minor damage to monitor
