We don’t build high-rise flats, so why should we be concerned about the Building Safety Act 2022?

The Building Safety Act 2022 has implications that reach beyond high-risk residential buildings — including areas of the materials handling industry such as racking structures, mezzanines, dock levellers and related installations.
