Inspections
Looking for SEMA racking inspectors? Since 2005, Acrow UK has conducted over 4,000 SEMA-accredited warehouse inspections, reinforcing our commitment to safety and industry excellence.
In the demanding realm of warehouse operations, ensuring the safety and integrity of your racking systems is not just a regulatory requirement—it’s a cornerstone of smart management. At Acrow UK, we specialise in comprehensive racking inspections that adhere to SEMA’s stringent guidelines, offering you precision, accuracy, and peace of mind.
Our expert team utilises a clear and efficient traffic light assessment system to meticulously evaluate your storage equipment: Red signals critical areas requiring immediate action; Amber marks spots needing close monitoring for potential issues; Green denotes components that meet or exceed safety standards.
Our inspections are thorough, examining every aspect of your system for impact damage, overloading risks, and general wear and tear. Working in tandem with your Person Responsible for Rack Safety (PRRS), our SEMA-certified inspectors ensure that every aspect of your racking safety checklist is thoroughly covered.
Post-inspection, Acrow UK provides a detailed report. This isn’t just a rundown of issues—it’s a pathway to enhanced safety and efficiency, with clear, prioritised recommendations for maintenance or upgrades. And to make things as convenient as possible for you, we offer free quotations for any necessary repairs as part of our service.
While annual SEMA inspections are the standard, we at Acrow UK advocate for at least bi-annual inspections alongside regular risk assessments. This diligent approach maximises the safety of your storage systems and the wellbeing of your workforce.
Forgetting inspection dates is a thing of the past. We keep track and notify you when your next inspection is due, ensuring that you’re always ahead of the curve in compliance and safety.
Whether you’re calculating load capacities, pre-empting potential accidents, or simply striving to meet health and safety legislation, Acrow UK is your trusted partner.

Essential Checklist: SEMA Compliant Racking Inspections
Maintaining a safe and efficient warehouse involves a diligent inspection routine for your storage systems. While Acrow UK is available to conduct comprehensive SEMA inspections, understanding the essentials of regular self-assessment is vital to warehouse safety, as highlighted in the Health and Safety Executive’s guidelines.
Proactive Damage Reporting: It’s crucial that any damage to the racking is reported immediately. Ensuring that your forklift operators and warehouse staff are well-informed of their roles in safety can make all the difference. A robust reporting system enables swift action and remediation, safeguarding the integrity of your storage equipment.
Routine Visual Checks: Regular risk assessments will determine how frequently your team should perform visual checks on the racking. Many organisations opt for weekly checks to stay ahead of potential issues. It’s imperative to keep formal records of these checks as part of your safety protocol. Should you need guidance on setting up an effective internal inspection system, Acrow UK is just a call away.
Annual Expert Assessments: Beyond internal checks, it’s mandatory to have an annual inspection conducted by a ‘technically competent person’. Acrow UK’s team of SEMA-approved inspectors can fulfill this requirement, providing an expert evaluation of your racking system. This not only ensures compliance with safety regulations but also contributes to the smooth operation of your warehouse.
Remember, the safety of your storage environment is an ongoing commitment. Let Acrow UK help you maintain the highest standards with our expert inspection services. Contact us to schedule your detailed annual SEMA inspection and keep your warehouse operating at its best.
