Look for the orange SafeHire logo
When looking for food serving equipment, always check that your supplier is SafeHire certified. SafeHire is much like ABTA for the holiday lover, Guild of Master Craftsmen for tradespeople, FENSA for window suppliers, and the Gas Safe Register for plumbers. SafeHire certification was established by Hire Association Europe (HAE). HAE is the industry-leading trade association for the plant, tool, and event equipment hire sector. They aim to protect, support, and grow the industry whilst safeguarding end-users, hirers, and contractors through their commitment to skills, standards, and sustainability.
As members of the Hire Association Europe (HAE), we always prioritise safety to ensure that you receive optimum levels of service.
Safehire certified hirers:
- Are tested annually to check their standards
- Are committed to quality and safety
- Inspect, check and PAT test and gas test every piece of equipment before every hire
- Train all their staff to a high standard
- Care about the environment
