Chemical Plants · North West

Why chemical plants testing in the North West is locally-specific.

Sector profile. Chemical manufacturing combines the three highest-risk slip-test factors in industry — process water, hydrocarbon and solvent contamination, and ATEX-zoned hazardous areas. Pendulum testing in chemical plants requires intrinsically-safe instruments where ATEX zones apply, plus careful sequencing around active production.

Regional industrial cluster. The North West is a key region for chemical plants activity — covering Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cheshire and Cumbria — including Trafford Park, the Liverpool Freeport, the Stanlow refinery cluster, the Macclesfield pharmaceutical belt, the Crewe rail-and-automotive cluster, the Warton/Samlesbury aerospace site, and the Sellafield nuclear cluster.
