UKAS Accreditation

Safety Check Engineering Ltd are delighted to announce that we have achieved Type A Inspection Body status under UKAS accreditation ISO/IEC 17020:2012 for Lifting Equipment including Tower Cranes, Crawler Cranes, Mobile Cranes, Construction Hoists, Mast Climbing Work Platforms, Lifting and Handling Machines, Recovery Vehicles and Lifting Accessory.  

The accreditation process included an audit at our Head Office in Gatwick, in addition to Witness Assessments of a number of our Engineer Surveyors.

Nigel Brewis, Managing Director of Safety Check Engineering Ltd said “We are absolutely delighted with the audit report. ISO/IEC 17020:2012 accreditation is the internationally recognised standard for the competence of inspection bodies. It is the standard against which UKAS accredits inspection bodies and evaluates their technical competencies. We are an independent thorough examination and customer service focused business and so my approach has always been to invest in quality engineers, who receive the correct training and support to ensure we consistently deliver a second to none service. This clearly demonstrates to our clients our continuing commitment to offer proven and robust thorough examinations”.

In 2016 Safety Check Engineering Ltd completed over 1749 Tower Crane and 571 Construction Hoist & MCWP thorough examinations and since 2006 we have carried out over 11000 tower crane and 2000 Construction Hoist/MCWP thorough examinations. This demonstrates that we are the market leader within the United Kingdom.
