Nolte Mezzanine: Building quality together
The risk of accidents, personal injury, and material damage can be the consequences of an unsafe mezzanine floor. To prevent this, the law requires employers to conduct three mandatory inspections of their warehouse and/or mezzanine floor. These inspections include the initial inspection, the periodic safety inspection, and the inspection in case of damage. The inspection obligation for warehouse racks is established in the European standard NEN-EN 15635. This standard mandates a maintenance obligation for warehouse racks and mezzanine floors. Additionally, it stipulates that safety inspections of racks must be carried out by an expert on three occasions: after installation, relocation, or modification of the rack (the initial measurement), after serious damage, and periodically (at least every 12 months). Nolte Mezzanine has these expert inspectors available. Our inspectors can provide you with all three inspections.
The initial inspection: This inspection is carried out upon completion of the installation/assembly of your mezzanine floor. Any changes to the configuration or relocation of your mezzanine floor require this “initial inspection.”
The periodic inspection: Once every 12 months, the inspector visits your site to inspect your mezzanine floor. They compare the current configuration with the prescribed configuration on the load signs. Additionally, they check for damages.
The damage inspection: If serious damage to your mezzanine floor is identified within your company, the inspector visits to assess the actions needed to restore it to a safe condition.
