Babcock Wanson delivers ‘first class service’ for animal by-products processor
Babcock Wanson has provided animal by-products processor and recycler, P Waddington & Co (1947) Ltd., with a highly efficient solution for odour abatement and process steam production at its site in Bradford, West Yorkshire. P Waddington & Co recycles all animal by-products into energy and
biofuels through its tallow, meat and bonemeal products. To minimise odour from the process, Babcock Wanson has supplied a Deodorising Oxidiser, specifically designed to abate odours and vapour emissions generated by the production process. Process off-gases are oxidised at a temperature of 850-900°C within
the Oxidiser’s chamber with a dwell time of approximately 1.0 second, before being discharged to the atmosphere as a harmless and odour free exhaust. Babcock Wanson Deodorising Oxidisers have an overall thermal efficiency of circa 85% which is in part achieved through the use of a waste heat steam boiler

William Hughes boxes clever with spot welded assembly for storage tray
William Hughes has come to the aid of an automotive seat manufacturer, providing a spot welded grid assembly to complete an under-seat storage unit for a market leading city van. Such an intricate part had to meet stringent criteria for robustness and aesthetics, while assuring ease of integration into the under-seat structure. The seat is manufactured by a global
leader in automotive seating and associated electrical and electronic systems. This company had no problem forming the tray base and three of the sides as part of the larger welded structure, but the fourth side proved more intricate and the company saw value in subcontracting the assembly to a third party. William Hughes was able to demonstrate its capability in the area, and its ability to provide the part at a price that made it attractive thereby winning the contract.

Thorworld ramp installation proves fruitful Summer Berry Company has improved logistics at its Kives Farm
and Manor Farm sites in Chichester since installing loading equipment from Thorworld Industries.
Summer Berry Company is a farming group renowned for its nurturing approach to growing and harvesting soft fruits in the South of England. Its raspberry canes are grown from roots and
reach 1.8m in length. At the end of November, the farming team begin packing the canes into wooden containers and transporting them into lorries for onward storage. The annual process had room for improvement, as moving the delicate canes was considered time
consuming with the potential for accidents, as Summer Berry's Senior Team Leader, Ivo Spasov explains: “We’d been using a fork truck to lift the palleted boxes of raspberry canes up to the opening of lorry containers, before releasing them,” he says.

Exporta expand their pallet box and crate range
Exporta have expanded their shipping crate range with the addition of their new Collapsible Cardboard Crates. Exporta already have a comprehensive range of rigid and collapsible plastic pallet boxes, Dolav boxes, collapsible Polycrates and very flexible wooden and plastic pallet collar crates. However, by talking to their customers, they identified a gap in the market for a very lightweight but robust and reusable crate. These cardboard crates are pallet boxes made from very strong and robust 15mm or 25mm reinforced
cardboard. Designed for air freight usage in mind, when combined with a lightweight nestable plastic pallet these crates can significantly reduce the volumetric cost of shipping by air. These crates are much lighter than any wooden or plastic crate and far stronger than any normal cardboard box.
