What Does CoSHH Mean?

The UK Government website states that "COSHH is the law that requires employers to control substances". This includes all nanomaterials that are hazardous to health.

There are several steps that an employer can take that ensure they are full CoSHH compliant. The organisation should:

  1. Identify any materials that are hazardous to health.
  2. Create risk assessments to prevent and manage risks to health.
  3. Provide equipment and measures to reduce harm to health.
  4. Ensure and enforce the use of these measures.
  5. Keep all equipment and measures in good working order.
  6. Provide ample training and instruction for all employees & others.
  7. Track the health of their employees, if appropriate.
  8. Plan for emergencies.

Some businesses may manufacture or produce harmful nanosubstance's. Although, for most businesses and organisations CoSHH regulations will still apply. This includes even benign substances they keep on the premises.

Chemical storage Cabinets are key to an organisations strategy to control hazardous substances. They help to isolate the substances in an area where people are aware there is a potential risk to their health.

This provides a visual and physical cue to the operator for them to refer to the risk assessment.

For futher information on CoSHH regualtions, you can visit the Government HSE webiste below.

What is DSEAR Compliance?

DSEAR stands for the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations (2002). This forms the primary legislation that apply to the control of any substance. Which could cause a fire or even an explosion. This legislation applies to any workplace or commercial premises, where substances are present. This could be substances they use or produce.

Our CoSHH Cabinets assists with DSEAR compliance by collecting and containing dangerous substances. By controlling dangerous materials stored in an area, we are eliminating the risk. In particular, it prevents incompatible substances coming into contact with each other.

GHS and CLP Labelling Systems Explained

GHS and CLP regulations form to provide legislation to organisations. This ensures hazardous substances and materials have correct labels.

Before the Global Summit in 2002, there was inconsistency around identifying hazardous materials. In particular, what materials they consider to be hazardous. Since, the UN have created a Globally Harmonised System. Establishing the identification and labelling of hazardous materials.

The GHS regulations were only developed as an international agreement and do not form a legal treaty, therefore countries or trading blocs have adopted the guidelines to create their own legal legislation.

The EU and the UK adopted the GHS guidelines by creating the CLP Regulation. The CLP Regulation came into force in the UK on 20th January 2010. The regulations show exact labels for different materials. Labels can vary depending on the effects that they have to either people or the environment.

These labels replace CHIP regulations in 2015. Our Hazardous Cabinets include CLP labels, to enforce and ensure compliance on site.
