We don’t sell racking, we don’t repair it and we don’t take referral fees from companies that do. Our only job is to inspect your system, document what we find, and give you an honest result you can act on.
Who inspects your racking matters more than most people realise. IRIA was built on a simple idea: a racking inspection is only worth the result, if the person doing it has nothing to gain from the outcome.
No racking sales, no referrals and no industry affiliations. That’s what makes us truly independent.
That independence is the foundation of everything we do. That’s why organisations across Australasia choose IRIA inspections to ensure their staff stay safe.
Independent racking inspections: why IRIA is different
Why are independent inspections of steel storage racking so important?
What happens at an independent racking inspection
When an IRIA Inspector visits your site, they:
- check your racking against the relevant Australian and international standards
- record every item of damage or non-compliance they find
- produce a fully documented report you can access online
Every IRIA inspection is documented and stored in RackMaster™, our own inspection platform with your report available online within 48 hours. You get a clear, fully transparent picture of the state of your racking – so you know exactly what needs attention and what doesn’t.
The numbers behind our experience
IRIA has inspected enough racking to have seen just about every scenario:
- around 2,000 inspections completed every year
- approximately 20,000 items of racking damage recorded annually
- single-site operators to large multi-site national organisations
That’s a lot of racking. And it means our inspectors arrive at every site with in-depth experience behind them, not just a checklist.
