  • 50 years of World Pumps: A perspective from the inside
    To really know how the industry has changed during the lifetime of World Pumps, you have to have been a part of it. Here, we present some insights from four professionals who have witnessed and moved with the changes of five decades in the pump industry.
  • Measuring liquid in half filled pipes
    A wastewater treatment plant needed to measure the volume of liquid in partially filled pipes. Inaccurate flow measurements in a particularly troublesome section of piping forced the plant to run on manual mode. The installation of electromagnetic flowmeters provided accurate, continuous measuring over the entire pipe cross-section and enabled the switch to automatic mode.
  • Packaged plant saves police energy
    By replacing its old oil-fired boiler house with four new offsite manufactured packaged plant rooms, including a number of new pumps, Lancashire Constabulary has reduced its Hutton Hall energy bills by over £245,000 per year and its CO2 emissions by 744 tonnes annually.
  • Control strategies bring cost benefits
    The terms of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, coupled with rising energy costs, has led to a radical rethinking about how pumping efficiencies can be improved using control strategies. Pump control specialist Retroflo has responded with a ‘breakthrough' system-wide pump control technology, as company founder and operations director Andy Laundon explains.
  • Peristaltic answer to caustic problems
    Positive displacement pumps are still the preferred choice for metering highly corrosive and caustic chemicals. However, when it comes to reducing life-cycle costs, Chuck Treutel, P. E, of the Watson-Marlow Pumps Group, argues that peristaltic pump technology has the advantage over diaphragm and progressive cavity types.

Armstrong integrates UK operations

17 June 2010

Armstrong has merged its two key areas of operation in the UK.

Armstrong’s off-site construction division, Armstrong Integrated Systems based in Halesowen, and the HVAC equipment business headquartered in Manchester and Redhill will now operate as a single company, Armstrong Integrated Ltd, under a new legal framework.

Armstrong says the changes are designed to support the company’s continued growth in the UK market and do not involve any scaling down of activities. Operations will continue at all three sites – Halesowen, Manchester and Redhill – with the existing workforce and management structure.
