Board Members of Responsible Care
Responsible Care is a global initiative which highlights the chemical industry’s commitment to improvements in health, safety, security and environmental performance. In the UK, it covers the whole of the supply chain: from manufacturers right through to the distributors and logistics companies.
Schenk UK are proud to work at the board level of the Technical Care Committee, where we help to influence standards that are used by logistical providers across the industry.
Working with the UK Home Office
Schenk UK are proud to work closely with the UK Home Office, who play a pivotal role in keeping the UK border safe and secure. Recently, Border Force approached us and asked us to manufacture a training tank for their staff. Under the management of Peter Monaghan (Technical Services Manager – Europe), the tank was manufactured by two Schenk UK apprentices and based on the design of the existing Schenk UK training tank. It was also fitted with false internal and external bulkheads to show how tanks could be modified to hide contraband coming across the border.
In addition to this, an improper repair was carried out on the frame to teach Border Force Agents how to identify a frame which has been tampered with, whilst a false-bottomed syphon tube was installed and could be rotated to reveal a hidden compartment.
