Maximising productivity and profitability whilst meeting toughening safety and sustainability standards is the greatest challenge facing the chemical industry today. Technological innovation brings opportunity, but reliability is vital. Plant modernization is expedient, yet project delivery complex. Our product range is approved across some of the world’s largest blue chip manufacturers including some of the UK’s top tier Comah sites.
Our PTFE/PFA solutions comply with all relevant UK, US, European and Global standards for handling corrosive materials.
Johnson Matthey (JM) initiated a project to develop eLNO (enhanced lithium nickel oxide), a cutting- edge battery cathode material designed to enhance the range and efficiency of electric vehicles (EVs). To support this, JM planned a demonstration plant in the UK, a commercial plant in Poland, and a future facility in Finland. We were selected to supply a complete valve package, including PTFE lined valves, isolation valves, and control valves, to ensure safe, reliable, and precise control of the materials in JM’s production process. Our solutions were successfully integrated into the UK and Poland plants, contributing to JM’s eLNO production. Despite the project’s premature end, our involvement highlighted our expertise in delivering tailored solutions for advanced chemical processes and supporting the development of sustainable technologies.
A global pharmaceutical company faced significant challenges with its outdated 1950s waste management system, leading to hazardous spills and inefficiencies. The old system involved pumping solvents through hoses with no reliable volume monitoring, resulting in frequent overflows. These spills posed serious safety risks and, in extreme cases, required plant shutdowns. Cleanup efforts were time-consuming, and valuable waste products were mixed and discarded, preventing potential reuse or sale. We designed a custom solution incorporating sensors, level switches, and remotely operated valves to prevent overflows and reduce human error. The new system not only enhances safety and efficiency but also allows the company to repurpose or sell pure waste, adding value to their operations. Completion expected in Q1 2025.
