Ensuring Compliance with UK Conformity Assessed (UKCA) Gas Certifications

Although the UKCA (UK Conformity Assessed) product marking was originally brought into force 1st January 2021, governing the certification of goods across England, Wales and Scotland, businesses can continue to use the CE mark until 31st of December 2024 before the guidance becomes a legal requirement. Our white paper aims to provide a clear breakdown of the UKCA certification and offer advice to ensure businesses are compliant with the new guidance in time.

Workplace Exposure Limits

For those working in industries where gas detection is required, it is important, for numerous reasons, that a thorough understanding of workplace exposure limits are met. This understanding, including how that looks when applied practically, will ensure compliance standards and regulations are met, as well as, most importantly maintaining environmental and operational safety which safeguard human health.

Measuring Gas at a Distance: Methane

Methane is an important greenhouse gas. It is also highly flammable and can be explosive in some circumstances. With so many dangers posed by the gas methane, it is imperative that health and safety managers are properly equipped, not just with the relevant gas detection technology and products from a safety point of view, with a robust understanding about how to protect their
personnel from the potential hazards involved when working with methane, but also to play their part in minimising releases to the environment.

Battery Power Storage: Protecting People and Plant

Energy storage systems are essential to bolster global efforts to pursue alternative energy sources such as solar and wind to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. Storage technologies include batteries, thermal storage, hydropower, mechanical storage, and other technologies. These systems are found in several applications, including utilities and energy companies, commercial facilities, transportation, banking, hospitals, and industrial operations.
