New Bauer slurry equipment sales, service and
parts dealers for Cumbria and south-west Scotland
Machinery and dairy equipment dealers in Cumbria and south-west Scotland have been appointed to provide local
service and parts support to farmers and contractors using Bauer slurry pumps, separators and related equipment.
lectrical and dairy
engineers Colin
Dawson Ltd are
now supplying
Bauer parts and
slurry equipment
from their Langwathby base near
Penrith, as are James Gordon Ltd
through their six branches
covering Ayrshire and Dumfries &
Galloway.
Adrian Tindall, Bauer UK &
Ireland sales manager, says:
“Accessible service and parts
support for slurry storage and
handling equipment is essential for
dairy and other livestock farms,
and especially for those located
within Nitrate Vulnerable Zones.
“The appointment of Gordons
and Colin Dawson means that
equipment already in use will
continue to be supported, and
farmers and contractors can invest
in new Bauer and FAN slurry
equipment knowing local parts
and service support is available.”
At James Gordon, group sales
manager Kevin Fraser points out

that the company has prior
experience of servicing Bauer
separators and pumps, and he
welcomes the opportunity to be
now also supplying these and
other products from the range.
“It’s a well-known name for
slurry equipment with a justified
reputation for high quality,” he
says. “We’re holding a
comprehensive stock of parts,
such as separator screens and
augers, pump components and
the original hose coupling
invented by Bauer, to ensure we
can supply whatever our
customers need as quickly as
possible.”
Colin Dawson Ltd specialises in
electrical engineering and dairy
equipment installation, with
agencies for Dairymaster milking
systems and Serap milk cooling
equipment.
Managing director Colin
Dawson and the company’s
service technicians – son Andrew
and Dean Hunter – are fully-
qualified electrical engineers. For
the company’s new role
supporting Bauer customers, the
service team has attended product
and technical training sessions at
Bauer’s headquarters factory in
Austria.
On-site training and a number
of service projects have also been
undertaken, including
refurbishment of Bauer’s high-
performance Green Bedding
screw separators.
Andrew Dawson said: “We are
currently building up a stock of
wearing and service parts for
Bauer pumps, separators and
other equipment, and will continue
to expand our stock as the
business develops to ensure we
provide a quick and efficient
service to our customers.”
