It's a long way to a sewer

If the outflow from your house or your commercial premises is not connected to a mains sewer, you may have a problem.
In very wild and rural areas there may not be an easy answer, with septic tank and local treatment options that still leave a standalone system. But if you are within sight of a mains, even if it’s up a hill, there are answers aplenty.

Challenge
Pressing rape seed oil using batch production, a customer didn’t want the expense of a pump at each press.
Solution
Buy one pump, and make it mobile!
The pump, motor, and controls were built onto an easily moved trolley so that it could be taken from point to point. Simple!
Benefits
Think of the money they saved!
If your wallet’s a bit thin, let us know. We might have a way of making your pound, dollar, or yen go that much further!

Suck it up
Challenge
Fruit juices, and smoothies, can be acidic and also very viscous. Also, as a food stuff full of sugar, they are great breeding places for bacteria.
Solution
Select a pump that is specifically designed for foods, has low shear and super smooth stainless-steel construction.
|
|
|
Benefits
Ability to clean in place (CIP), pumps don’t taint the food, and the juices don’t destroy the pumps! Long life for the pumps and low maintenance costs.
Got a juicy problem? Let us know.

“Phil, how are you finding business life during the lockdown?”
Our service teams are as busy as ever, in fact during May, we achieved a record number of call outs and turnover.
The sales staff have been busy with enquiries from around the world, although perhaps as expected the UK has been quieter.
The biggest challenges we have faced have been with suppliers not open, or with limited staff to deliver to us.

So the biggest difficulty is getting equipment on time to you. Things we normally expect in a day are taking a week, and pumps on a normal 2 week delivery can take 4 weeks or even longer.
So the one tip I have for you this month is to plan!
Look ahead and if you have a requirement let us know as soon as you can so we can serve you properly.
