Identify every substance on site
Your consultant audits every chemical, dust, fume and biological agent, from industrial solvents to everyday cleaners. Your existing SDS library is checked against actual workplace use. You leave with a complete, accurate picture of what's on site and where the gaps are.
One clear, prioritised report
You get a COSHH-compliant report linking each substance to its exposure route, health effect and control measure. The action plan is SMART, implementable, and ranked by risk. Clear next steps your team can work from, not file.
Know who's responsible and what to do next
Controls assigned using the full COSHH hierarchy - elimination, substitution, engineering controls like LEV, then PPE as last resort. Air quality testing or health surveillance set out with frequency. A 30-minute walkthrough ensures everything is understood, with 30 days of email support.

Builders Merchants
Your merchant stock is also a COSHH inventory: cement, timber dust, adhesives and fuels, all handled by staff and customers. We build the assessment around the substances you actually hold and how they're handled, to meet the COSHH Regulations 2002.
Warehousing & Logistics
Warehouses run on more hazardous substances than most people realise: diesel, LPG, battery acid, cleaning chemicals and dust. Our COSHH assessment covers each one as it's actually used, including process dust and fumes, to meet the COSHH Regulations 2002.
Manufacturing & Engineering
COSHH bites hardest in manufacturing, because the worst exposures are generated by the process itself: welding fume, silica, oil mist and wood dust. Our assessment evaluates every substance and by-product against the way your line actually runs, to meet the COSHH Regulations 2002.
Garden Centres
Garden centres handle a COSHH range all of their own: fertilisers, plant protection products, chlorine, composts and café chemicals, some sold to customers and some used by staff. We build the assessment around your substances and the tasks they're used in, to meet the COSHH Regulations 2002.
Metal Stockholders
The COSHH hazards in stockholding are easy to underestimate: cutting oils, mists, degreasers, coatings and welding fume, most of it produced by the process. Our assessment evaluates each by-product where it arises, to meet the COSHH Regulations 2002.
Childcare & Nurseries
A nursery's COSHH risks are everyday products: sanitisers, bleach, nappy disposal and craft materials, all used around young children. Our assessment sets safe, proportionate control under the COSHH Regulations 2002 without tying staff up in needless restrictions.
