Hazardous Substance Tank Off-Stream Management

Facilitating Statutory Compliance in Industry

Unsure of how to have your off-stream tanks signed off under HSWA? Need a Hazardous Substances Certificate for your storage tank? Talk to IEM today.

IEM offer an end-to-end service for the entire process of achieving compliance, providing consulting, project management, physical inspection and reporting relating to off-stream storage tanks. We can ensure you gain the required Hazardous Substances Certificate to operate. This is a unique service within our industry.

Under the Health and Safety at Work Act (Hazardous Substances) 2017, your containment tanks are subject to statutory maintenance and testing protocols, whether on-stream or off-stream.

We offer tank inspection up to 250m³. Tanks with greater volume require an API-qualified Inspector, which we are not – but we can facilitate this on your behalf.

Trade Background

IEM was established on a foundation of trade experience in plant maintenance, including in chemical and processing plants. Years of practical engagement and servicing of small tanks, boilers, steam generation plant and the like has uniquely positioned IEM to grasp the statutory compliance requirements for primary and secondary containment systems under HSWA.

Bund Testing

The Secondary Containment System (Bund) that surrounds your Hazardous Substance Tank needs its own compliance testing at least once every 10 years.

IEM offers a full service to undertake this process on behalf of your business.
