  • Did you know that we regularly check our member’s credentials? 📃 It’s something that is important to our association because we know that your workplace can only run safely if the racking and shelving you have in place has been designed and installed to do its job correctly. That’s why we ask any member looking to join SEMA as a member to undergo an audit. It’s a rigorous process that checks that each company is working to the highest level of SEMA standards, codes of practice and industry standards. Check they are conforming to health and safety requirements while also reducing their environmental impact. Plus, to save you the leg work it also checks they have the correct legal and insurance documentation in place. But, that’s not enough for us and to make sure our members consistently offer the highest levels of quality and safety we repeat the process every 5 years! #SEMAMembers #PalletRackingSafety #RackingSafety
