How can chemical manufacturing facilities guarantee COSHH compliance and prevent cross-contamination during multi-product tank changeovers?

When switching between products, preventing cross-contamination is essential for maintaining product quality, protecting employees and meeting strict health, safety and environmental regulations.

Achieving zero cross-contamination demands high-pressure water jetting up to 60,000 PSI to strip hazardous process scaling back to the bare substrate without the use of aggressive, reactive chemical agents.

To satisfy the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations, all cleaning actions must be tightly paired with specialised ADR-compliant wet and dry vacuum tankers. These units directly capture and bundle hazardous materials into a sealed, legally auditable waste stream on-site. This eliminates the risk of open-air exposure and ensures the operator complies fully with the Hazardous Waste Regulations (England and Wales) or the Special Waste Regulations in Scotland.

Capper Group Ltd operate tankers with ADR-qualified operators, providing a safe and compliant solution for hazardous waste collection during tank cleaning operations.
