DON’T LET FAKE BECOME FATAL
⚠️ Safety and compliance should always come first but unfortunately there are companies that make cost and profit their priority. ⚠️
Thorne & Derrick are excited to announce our brand new WEBINAR, to be delivered by Terry McDonald on the 7th June 2023.
It is estimated that between 300,000 and 3 Million fake ATEX certified products are being used in the explosive atmosphere industry. This webinar will help raise awareness of the problem, and provide real examples of fake products and fraudulent certificates. We will offer recommendations on how the industry can all make a contribution to combat this problem and improve safety.
Fake certificates and products is a growing problem. The question of a serious accident is not IF but WHEN!
