PUWER - (Provision & Use of Working Equipment Reg's.)

In 1998 PUWER legislation was introduced in the UK by the HSE putting responsibility onto employers to ensure that their machinery was brought upto a safe standard of operation to protect both operatives and other personnel from injury. This provided employers with a clear set of guidelines on what was required to meet PUWER Compliance criteria.

Guard-Tech has vast experience carrying out PUWER Assessments on all types of machine tooling equipment providing detailed PUWER Assessment Reports highlighting any non-compliance issues, risk assessments and recommendations on how to become fully PUWER compliant.

Swarf Management

Guard-Tech are specialists in Swarf Management Systems!

Swarf Management Systems may not in themselves earn you revenue, but when they no longer perform efficiently or are seriously worn/damaged they may well prove costly in lost production time and result in damage to key machine parts.

When such circumstances arise Guard-Tech offers a service that responds quickly, is cost effective and most importantly minimises lost production time.

Guard-Tech can either manufacture and unstall completely new bespoke Swarf Management/Coolant system, reverse engineer your existing system or service & repair your existing system to an 'as-new' condition.
