The DSEAR survey of the 2K Polymer facility was undertaken in February 2011 to determine the implications of developing a new business opportunity at the Alfreton site.
The Alfreton site is a key manufacturing facility with the capability to formulate a wide range of polymer products and innovative packaging solutions – many tailored to customer’s own brand and shipped world-wide.
The primary objective of this visit was to determine whether the proposed development was subject to duties under the Dangerous Substances Explosive Atmosphere Regulations (DSEAR) – to comment on the relevant hazards (machinery, materials and methods) and suggest any additional control measures to be deployed on-site in the event of project execution.
