Insist on BDl Certified Staff, if you are in any doubt, email us to make sure the company / operator concerned is part of our training programme. No substitute for training 'That’s despite what some companies would have you believe, all too often we see ‘side stepping’ the training to save cost but the saving is not real, instead all they are doing is diluting the credibility of the results they are going to produce, which impact on the customer and compromises safety. We have worked tirelessly to establish a methodology and credibility wrapped up in ‘The Helideck Testing Protocol’ it concerns us that others adopt Our testing protocol without permission or any training in its use, but use the quality of this protocol to give their results credibility. Not for much longer as we feel this has a negative affect on the testing programme as a whole and can call into question the validity of any results. Companies who have adopted the training schedule, which means that they have done the initial training, signed up for the refresher training and are meeting the annual calibration requirements, should have prominence so you can have confidence in the results they produce'. To buy an EXL must mean you buy into a program of continued excellence and training, producing quality in testing standards with validity in results.
Laboratory and On Site Testing facilities allow all our clients to be pro-active about safety, not just reactive to accidents............... The EXL is used for all our Laboratory and Site Testing, under wet conditions. What ever your testing requirements, safety survey, laboratory testing or a purpose written safety standard, contact us so we can discuss your needs and offer a fixed price proposal. a word of warning.............don't be persuaded to use 'Continuous Measuring Devices' like the Tortus or dragsled, as in the words of the HSE 'they could lead to unsuitable floors being classified as acceptable' because 'they produce misleading results in wet or contaminated conditions', but that is what we are concerned with wet or contaminated surfaces Not clean dry surfaces!.
