WHY HALLAM-ICS?

Codes + Best Practices = SAFETY

Codes are only the minimum requirements and
they should never be used alone to design a
TGMS. For defining a safety requirement specification for any TGMS application we recommend an approach that will reference, consider and harmonize overlapping codes and utilize all resources AND best practices available. This approach allows us to create reliable, secure, high performance systems and reduce risk.

Mastery in Managing Hazardous Materials

From cleanrooms to sub-class 1 facilities, our team is adept at designing systems that manage hazardous materials including chemical storage and delivery, as well as toxic gas monitoring and control. Our comprehensive understanding of regulatory requirements and best practices ensures personnel and environmental safety.

Nimble Solutions for Any Location

Our deep technical knowledge equips us to handle projects of varying complexity both large and small. With eight locations across the country, we provide the nimble ability to respond quickly, ensuring timely, high-quality delivery and support wherever your project is located.

We Understand The Requirements of Toxic Gas Systems

We have longstanding relationships with diverse customers and a proven history of successfully applying Toxic Gas Monitoring Systems at major semiconductor manufacturing sites and university research facilities across the country.
