Local lifting equipment inspection

Thorough examinations across Newbridge.

Newbridge is Edinburgh’s western logistics gateway, with major distribution centres beside the airport and motorway network. Our examinations keep their fork trucks, dock equipment and lifting gear compliant and safe.

Newbridge is a key airport-edge distribution hub, with equipment working intensively across warehouses, freight operations and support services.

We inspect independently of equipment supply and repair. The digital report identifies the asset, examination basis, condition, defects, actions and next-due date so the duty holder has a usable compliance record.

Local coverage includes Newbridge industrial estate.
