Stay Safe, Secure & Legal With Regular Load Handling Equipment Maintenance From Thorworld

There are a number of legal requirements for loading bay/handling equipment, such as mobile yardramps, dock levellers, lifting platforms & scissor lifts, to be subject to regular inspection, service and maintenance.

The British Safety Council has warned that in the current economic downturn there is a danger that firms might cut back on these statutory obligations, leading to potential equipment failure and the increasing likelihood of accidents.

Thorworld is a market-leading designer, manufacturer and supplier of high quality loading/unloading equipment and an extensive range of loading bay accessories & safety aids.

As part of a Pre-Planned Service & Maintenance Programme our experienced team will inspect, service and maintain all your Thorworld load handling equipment to keep you safe, secure and legal. Contact us for more details and a copy of our latest Product Range Catalogue.
