We are also a IECEx certified service facility which demonstrates our capability to safely repair and overhaul equipment used in explosive atmospheres.
Our Achilles category B2 and UVDB accredited workshop has the latest facilities to accommodate large machines, including a 40-tonne crane and dynamic testing capabilities and we can provide full load testing as required to guarantee performance after the work has been undertaken.
Furthermore, our RISAS accreditation provides clear evidence of robust supply chain processes and control.
