Safety and quality management
Sorting chemicals, brines and acids, solvents and pesticides is only carried out in special work environments with a controlled atmosphere.
The shelves of the warehouse for dangerous substances comply with highest safety standards (warehouse shelves with collecting containers and leakage sensors as well as ex-sensors) in which substance groups are stored in accordance with their danger potential and chemical properties. Leakage or the generation of inflammable fume mixtures are immediately reported and thus intervention is possible in shortest time.
Fire detection installations as well as an extinguishing water retention system make sure that in a case of emergency, danger for the environment and the underground water are kept as low as possible. The SuperDrecksKëscht® Center is permanently under supervision by technical means as well as control rounds.
There is a close collaboration with the environment agency, the industrial inspection (ITM) and the CGDIS.
Quality management – The important task of the lab
In order to support quality insurance and industrial safety, the SDK has its own lab with qualified staff and high-tech analyzing devices which comply with the highest requirements.
The lab’s mission is to guarantee the quality of incoming and outgoing substances: Unknown substances to be disposed of are tested and analyzed on site to insure a safe transport in compliance with applicable regulations. Substances as used grease and solvents are also tested in the SDK Center in order to guarantee that the criteria of the waste recipient for recycling and disposal are matched.
In case of chemical accidents, accidents with unknown substances or the disposal of unknown waste, the SDK is available all around the clock to allow a safe disposal of these substances.
The lab is also in charge of guaranteeing the good operation of the safety installations and to maintain the protective equipment of staff up to date and ready to use at any time.
