Smiths wins Morris draw
Smiths Equipment Hire has added a 1500psi Hilta pressure washer from Morris Site Machinery to its fleet, after winning it in a prize draw organised by the manufacturer.
Morris wanted to find out whether customers preferred to describe such machines as ‘pressure washers’ or ‘power washers’, and votes were canvassed via the company’s website, social media and face-to-face meetings. Participants were entered into the prize draw, and the machine was won by Smiths, whose Lytham St Annes Depot Manager, Mark Oldrid, is pictured, centre, with Operating Director Dave Sudell, right, receiving the machine from Morris’ Rick Fisher. In the poll, ‘pressure washer’ was the clear preference by a majority of two-to-one, and the term will be adopted by Morris in the future.
Customised SDMO generators for Hewden
As part of a recent order from Hewden, SDMO has adapted some of its Rental Compact generators to meet the specific requirements of users working at oil refineries. Hewden purchased 90 machines, encompassing a power band from
30kVA to 275kVA. Some of these have been upgraded to petrochemical industry specifications, including the addition of spark arresters and air shut-off valves, to protect the generator in situations where high levels of gas may be present. SDMO has designed the valve so that it opens only when the set starts, and automatically shuts when the generator stops.
Celebrating Champion service
Champion Hire recently celebrated employee John Coulson’s achievement in having completed 25 years’ service with the Sheffield-based business. John started work at Champion’s Leeds depot on a government Youth Training Scheme as a trainee fitter. He later became a hire desk clerk, and after several years in this role, was appointed Depot Manager at Leeds in August 2003.
Chairman Tim Hale, who is pictured presenting John with a bottle of champagne and a cheque, together with Financial Director Jim Raybould and MD Keith White, told EHN, “John is one of many loyal and dependable staff who have been with us for years. We could not provide the kind of customer service that we do without guys like him”.
