COSHH LEV Inspections in Trafford

Trafford's extraordinary industrial concentration — centred on Trafford Park with its 1,400-plus businesses — generates a vast range of airborne hazards requiring effective local exhaust ventilation. The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 mandate that every LEV system is thoroughly examined and tested at least every fourteen months, and Safe Lee Inspection & Consultancy provides this statutory testing across the Trafford borough. On Trafford Park, Kellogg's cereal production generates flour dust, ingredient particulates, and cooking fumes requiring extraction at multiple process points. Engineering and fabrication workshops throughout the estate produce welding fumes, grinding dust, and metalworking fluid mist captured by extraction arms and booth systems. The paint and coatings businesses on the estate operate spray booths with downdraft extraction. Broadheath Industrial Area near Altrincham hosts further manufacturing and engineering firms with LEV systems controlling dust and fume exposure. Carrington Business Park accommodates chemical processing and manufacturing operations with extraction requirements. Vehicle body repair workshops across the borough depend on spray booth extraction to protect workers from isocyanate paint fumes. Woodworking firms throughout Trafford — joineries, furniture makers, and shopfitters — rely on dust extraction connected to every cutting and shaping machine. The food production businesses across the borough generate cooking vapours and ingredient dust requiring effective ventilation control. Our engineers test the complete LEV system — measuring face velocities at every capture point, inspecting ductwork for integrity and obstructions, evaluating filter condition and loading, and confirming fan output against design specifications. We also assess whether system designs remain appropriate for current processes, a critical consideration on Trafford Park where businesses frequently evolve their operations. Safe Lee Inspection & Consultancy is based in Irlam, within Trafford, providing the most responsive LEV testing service available to the borough's businesses.
