SSPC-QP 1 CERTIFIED, WITH A COMMITMENT TO SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT
At IMIA, we test the waters for you, so
you don’t have to worry about regulatory problems or far-reaching
consequences. In alliance with government agencies, IMIA’s
full-time Safety Director works in accordance with local, state,
federal, Coast Guard, EPA and OSHA officials to ensure our compliance
with current safety and environmental regulations. On the job,
we can provide shipyards and fleet owners with safety manuals
that ensure regulatory requirements are met, and offer viable,
sensitive solutions to pollution prevention and health impacts.
Designed specifically for the coatings industry, our cutting-edge
equipment and machinery is operated and maintained by our own
certified technicians. Our OSHA-approved suspended staging was
designed to facilitate airflow and to minimize contact points
on the steel structure, eliminating coating damage caused by conventional
pole staging. As a result of our focus on ensuring a safe workplace
for our people, we continue to be one of the safest companies
in the industry.
