Transvac Systems recognises that counterfeiting is a serious global problem that affects companies worldwide.

To protect our customers we have implemented a proactive and comprehensive counterfeit prevention policy for all purchases entering or leaving our warehouse.

To help prevent the purchase of counterfeit, suspect or unapproved products, we purchase components directly from:

• OEM’s or CEM’s
• Franchised Distributors
• Manufacturer or Agent

Certain hard-to-find or obsolete products cannot always be obtained from these primary sources. In such instances, it may be necessary to source components through brokers or independent distributors. In these cases Transvac Systems approved vendors shall only be used.

Introduction:
Transvac Systems designs, manufacturers and supplies specialist sanitary systems and associated equipment to the marine and offshore industries. The company also provides technical on-site services to support the equipment it supplies.

Responsibilities:
Protection of the environment in which we live and operate is part of Transvac Systems’ values and principles and we consider it to be sound business practice. Care for the environment is one of our key responsibilities and an important part of the way in which we do business.

Statement:

Transvac Systems (“ Transvac ”) recognises and accepts its legal obligations (under the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 and all applicable regulations made under it) to ensure, as far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of all its employees, persons in training, directors , contractors and temporary workers (“Employees”) and the health and safety of visitors and other persons who attend or use its premises and who may be affected by its work (“Visitors”).

Obligations:

In accordance with its legal obligations, Transvac has carried out a risk assessment of its activities, equipment, facilities, building and all other related arrangements where matters of health and safety may be involved. This Health and Safety Policy (“the Policy”) is designed to enable Transvac to comply with its statutory health and safety obligations, to apply the necessary measures identified in its risk assessment and to adopt all other reasonably practicable measures (within the limits of available resources) to:

Reduce hazards and the risk of personal injury to its Employees and Visitors arising out of its activities;

Maintain a safe and healthy place of work; and reduce hazards and the risk of damage to its property.

Transvac ensures the safety of the products, packages and operations for our employees, consumers and the environment. We consider this to be a requirement for conducting responsible business, and an essential element of building and maintaining trust in the products that we produce and sell.

We carefully evaluate the safety of all products that we sell before they go to market, using well-established risk assessment methods, tools and techniques to understand both hazards and potential exposures. These evaluations are a mandatory part of the company’s product development process, and begin during the early stages of a product’s design and introduction to market.

Products are removed from circulation where there is clear evidence that they are unsafe. On these events, we either find a safe and technically/economically viable alternative, take actions to reduce proposed exposures to humans and the environment to safe levels, or perform additional work to reduce uncertainty until we are confident that the product is safe.

As a part of the product clearance process, all safety evaluations are approved by company management and conducted prior to release to market. They are reviewed and updated whenever our products change in ways that might change the earlier safety evaluation.

Transvac’s Cyber Protection Procedures are based on best practices and provides guidance for its employees to follow to limit the potential for attacks and ameliorate damage. The guidelines have been determined to provide employees with the appropriate degree of freedom required to be productive whilst safeguarding data and maintaining appropriate protection from attack from outside parties.

Transvac Systems maintains it’s Quality Management System in accordance with the requirements of BS EN ISO 9001:2008 and have implemented the standard to cover the company’s scopes of supply.

ISO 9001 certification is pursued to provide third party accreditation to the high level of quality to which our products and services adhere to.

Quality and Client Satisfaction are of the upmost importance and remain the main focus for all of the company’s business activities.
