Indeed it is one of a rare breed of British companies that not only designs and manufactures a wide range of water treatment equipment in-house, including half-bridge, three-quarter bridge and full bridge rotary scrapers and thickeners for both dirty and clean water applications, but it can also supply fixed bridge scrapers, skimmers, thickeners, tanks and vessels and all necessary pipework. The company is equally committed to supporting water treatment plants with comprehensive capabilities for maintenance, repair and servicing, as well as being able to assist with development and modernisation plans. Founded in 1974, originally to build concrete moulding machines, it grew rapidly, regularly developing new capabilities and entering new markets such as rail, power and wind power. By the turn of the century it was well established internationally, with operations in Europe and Asia. All of these activities are linked through a core competence for precision, high-quality design and manufacture.
