Mechanical Engineering Specialist for the Water Sector
An opportunity has arisen to acquire a mechanical engineering company specialising in the Water Industry. Benefitting from over 3 decades of trading, this business has built a solid and long standing client base comprised of prominent UK utility companies, and principal civil and mechanical contractors.
The company carries out a range of mechanical installation, maintenance and refurbishment projects for essential water and wastewater treatment equipment and systems. The wide scope of systems within the company’s expertise includes inlet screens, chemical dosing systems, pipework, screening handling equipment and sludge screens.
Its highly skilled and qualified mechanical installation teams routinely deploy the company’s services onsite for its clients. These services are delivered through a comprehensive project management, on site supervision, detailed Risk Assessments & Method Statements and equipment testing & calibration.
