No-Go for dust explosibility does not automatically mean No Hazard.
You’re designing, modifying, or installing a dust collector or a new process line

Need a new HAC, an update to an old classified-area drawing, or help responding to reviewer comments?
Previous static shocks, nuisance discharges, near misses, fires, or explosions
Scaling up a reaction from laboratory to pilot or production scale
Getting it wrong can mean a shipment gets rejected at the dock, or worse, gets accepted and mislabeled.
The existing document contains missing, obsolete, uncertain, or inconsistent information.

01
Our mission is to help organizations establish a clear technical basis for understanding hazards and selecting effective risk controls. That approach is built into our name.
Identify the materials, operating conditions, equipment limitations, credible scenarios, test data, applicable standards, and assumptions that form the basis of a sound process safety decision.
Laboratory TestingEvaluate how fires, explosions, runaway reactions, combustible dust events, overpressure scenarios, electrostatic ignition, toxic releases, and other hazardous events may actually develop in your specific process.
Process Safety ConsultingHelp clients select practical engineering, administrative, and operational safeguards that reduce risk and support safer, more reliable operations.
Process Safety Training02
We deliver precise, standards-based testing that gives your team the technical data needed to understand and manage process hazards.
Explore Testing ServicesOur consulting covers the technical core of process safety, combining rigorous analysis with practical, engineering-driven solutions your team can put into action.
Explore Consulting ServicesOur reports are written to be used, not filed.Consulting Services
We equip your team with the process safety knowledge to identify hazards and make informed decisions, through training grounded in real engineering practice.
In-House, Onsite, and Live Virtual Training for Industrial Risk Reduction
03
Send your SDS, process description, P&ID, equipment information, test requirements, or hazard question.
Identify the appropriate testing, consulting or training scope based on the decision your team needs to make.
The laboratory and engineering teams generate and evaluate the required technical information.
Receive clear findings and practical recommendations that support engineering, EHS, operations, regulatory or project decisions.
04
Our team is led by engineers with decades of hands-on experience across some of the most demanding process safety environments in the industry. That depth means your facility’s hazards are evaluated by people who have already seen how they play out in real operations, not just studied them in theory.
Many firms rely on third-party labs or published reference values when assessing dust, thermal, or reactive hazards. HazBasis conducts testing in-house, so the data behind your hazard analysis is generated specifically for your material and process, not estimated from someone else’s sample.
A hazard analysis only matters if it leads somewhere. We deliver risk-ranked, facility-specific recommendations designed to hold up under regulatory review and insurance audits, and practical enough for your team to act on without a second round of translation.
