Broadcrown is one of the world's largest manufacturers of generating sets, offering a wide range of standard and bespoke power solutions to the worldwide market. Broadcrown employs 180 people who are based in Hixon, Staffordshire and throughout the world at sites in the USA, Nigeria and Singapore
It is a global business with a global supply chain - but Broadcrown chose Pym & Wildsmith to powder coat the base frame of their generators for UK and worldwide distribution.
Pym & Wildsmith are now an integral part of Broadcrown’s production process - base frames are collected from Broadcrown, shot blasted and powder coated and returned to site within an agreed schedule. The finish is a high gloss black, ensuring that the final product is functional and has a quality appearance.
Production Director Richard Davis said:
"We’ve been a customer of Pym & Wildsmith for over 10 years and have found them to be a reliable and professional company. Originally P&W just provided a shot blasting service for us, but they identified that they could powder coat the frames instead - thereby saving us time and providing us with a more robust and professional finish. Pym & Wildsmith made this suggestion and have helped us to implement it successfully."
APB Group is an established civil engineering and geo technical company based in the Midlands which serves an impressive portfolio of clients throughout the UK.
With a team of over 60 skilled workers, it mainly carries out repairs and reinforcement works to national railway and canal networks. Its high profile customers include British Waterways, Network Rail and Marconi – all of which require sub-contractors they can rely on to deliver projects strictly on time and within budget.
Because APB Group has to impress, it can only work with the most reliable suppliers who will ensure it gets the job done. The company discovered Pym & Wildsmith last year after one of its regular suppliers let it down during a job in Wigan. Its team was due to install steel strengthening beams at a railway bridge but they needed to be shot-blasted and painted before they could go ahead.
Commercial Manager Richard Nash said:
"Our supplier pulled out of the job at the last minute and we suddenly had just three days to find a replacement. We turned to Pym & Wildsmith following a recommendation and they were more than happy to help. They rearranged their production line and shift patterns to accommodate us and we’ve been working with them ever since. Pym & Wildsmith always deliver a quality service with a friendly attitude to their customers. They’re a pleasure to work with and one that we know we can rely on. "
