Gasket Association celebrates 25 years The UK Gasket & Sealing Association (UKGSA) is celebrating its 25th Anniversary. Formerly known as the Gasket Cutters Association (GCA), the network is still going strong with members from across the UK’s gasket and sealing industries. Established in 1993, the aims of the Association remain the same: • to represent the specialised interests of companies engaged in the conversion of materials into gaskets and seals; • to facilitate the exchange of information and ideas between members and those with whom they have commercial and professional dealings; and • to highlight new developments or methods. The UKGSA organises a number of technical visits, networking events and social events during the year.

The unit features a water softening facility with a dirt and air separator, in addition to side stream filtration capabilities and a system dosing unit. It can even offer completed boosted mains cold water services across a broad spectrum of applications. This product can deliver up to 8 bar of continuous water pressure, ensuring multi- storey buildings and high-rise flats can still reap the benefits of a normal water supply. An external water tank can be installed in conjunction with an Andrews boiler, guaranteeing minimal site space is required even on multi megawatt projects. www.andrews-sykes.com 12 PECM Issue 35 Ogle Models and Prototypes For over 60 years, Ogle have remained at the forefront of the model making and prototyping world.
