  • Hazardous Substances ActControl of hazardous substances.
  • NEMAEnvironmental authorisations, duty of care and incident reporting.
  • Air Quality ActAtmospheric emission licences and limits.
  • Waste ActWaste licensing and hazardous waste duties.
  • King VRisk governance for boards.
How we work with chemicals clients

Built around the plant

Timed around the plant

Sessions are planned around shifts, shutdowns and board meetings.

Process and corporate risk in one register

Process safety sits alongside finance and compliance, rated on the same scale, so the board sees one picture.

Evidence on hand

Controls and actions are recorded in a secure workspace your team keeps updating, so an inspection or audit request is answered from live records.
