EMIS sources the environmental protection and compliance products contractors need to work within their permits: silt curtains and turbidity barriers, spill containment, water-quality, noise and vibration monitoring, and habitat protection measures, all specified to the relevant permit and standard. One accountable contact translates the consent conditions into a defensible product package, with the calibration and compliance evidence attached.
Environmental protection and compliance products are the equipment that lets a project meet its permit, consent and discharge conditions: silt curtains and turbidity barriers for in-water works; spill containment and pollution-control kit; water-quality, noise and vibration monitoring instruments; and habitat protection measures such as exclusion fencing and erosion-control matting. The specification is driven by regulation as much as by the site. A monitor must measure the right determinands at the right resolution, and a silt curtain must be rated for the flow it will actually see. Sourcing the near-right item is a compliance failure waiting to happen.
EMIS starts from the consent. We read the permit conditions, method statement and monitoring plan, then produce a specification that maps each product to the requirement it satisfies. We source from vetted suppliers, verify calibration and traceability, then deliver one coordinated package rather than a scatter of separate hire and purchase orders.
Because we hold the vetting and compliance evidence, calibration certificates, MCERTS traceability where relevant, material data sheets for containment products, the audit trail is ready when the regulator or client asks. That is the difference between a monitoring regime that stands up to scrutiny and one that generates queries.
EMIS neither manufactures instruments nor delivers monitoring services, so our specification is impartial. We recommend the products that satisfy the consent on the best terms, not a line we happen to stock. Our fixed-point role means the contractor carries one relationship, not a supply chain.
The advantages that a single accountable partner brings to this service.
Every product is mapped to the consent, discharge or monitoring condition it satisfies, so the package is defensible to the regulator, not just adequate for the site.
Water-quality and noise and vibration instruments are sourced with calibration certificates and MCERTS traceability where relevant, ready for audit and for a monitoring regime that stands up to scrutiny.
Silt curtains, turbidity barriers, bunding and spill containment are specified against the actual flow, exposure and contaminant, reducing the risk of a containment failure and a reportable incident.
A single coordinator owns the specification, sourcing and delivery of the whole environmental package, so the contractor holds one relationship instead of many.
We hold no stock of our own, so we recommend what satisfies the consent on the best terms, not a product we need to move.
Typical project types and the sectors they serve.
Dredging, piling and outfall works need silt curtains and turbidity barriers rated to the flow and the consent, deployed with monitoring to prove compliance. EMIS specifies the barrier and the instruments to the actual conditions.
Works in and around watercourses require spill containment, bunding and pollution-response kit rated to the flow and the consent. We specify containment to the actual conditions and hold the material evidence for the permit file.
Consented works near receptors and watercourses need water-quality, noise and vibration monitoring deployed to a consistent, traceable standard. EMIS sources the instrument network to one specification with calibration evidence for defensible data.
Schemes with ecological constraints need habitat protection measures, exclusion fencing, erosion-control matting and protection for retained features, coordinated with the ecological programme. EMIS sources the package to the scheme's consent and delivery window.

Practical answers for specifiers and buyers considering this service.
We source and coordinate the products. EMIS is a procurement partner, not a monitoring contractor. We specify the instruments, containment and habitat protection your consent requires and deliver them with the calibration and compliance evidence attached.
Whether you require specialist products, technical procurement support, supplier evaluation, coordinated plant and equipment hire, logistics or full commercial procurement management, EMIS provides one accountable point of contact from initial requirement through to final delivery and close-out.
We respond to all enquiries within one business day.
