PSSR Review for Laboratories — An Overview

Pre-start-up Safety Review (PSSR) checklists are a crucial aspect in the manufacturing sector. Before any product is sent for final commissioning, it needs to be approved using these checklists so that all stakeholders of the design, planning, and manufacturing processes are onboard. It helps in collaborating with other departmental members and ensuring that the product is of top-notch quality.

At Kewaunee International, we even use PSSR checklists to cross check every fine detail before we hand off your commissioned laboratory to you. If you’d like to know more about our turnkey services, you can view them here: https://www.kewaunee.in/turnkey-services.php
