World’s largest Dairy increases capacity at Aylesbury Site with help from JWCI Ltd

JWCI Ltd’s involvement at the Arla Super Dairy increases thanks to a continued working relationship with Global leader SPX. Chosen by SPX, Staffordshire based process engineers JWCI Ltd, are spearheading work on their pipework projects during the second phase at the super dairy in Aylesbury, UK.

Work on the Arla super dairy started in 2012 - JWCI was the first of several teams on site in January 2013 completing works on chemical distribution plant and pipe work for Global company Ecolab. During this time they worked alongside SPX (formerly APV) who were responsible for all the process plant and pipe work throughout the whole factory.
During Phase 1 at the plant, JWCI, working alongside German and Spanish contractors, completed works on all chemical distribution plant and pipework throughout the factory.
Now fully operational the Arla super dairy implemented phase 2 of site expansion which was awarded to Global firm SPX to introduce additional capacity and improve flexibility.
JWCI was again on site at Aylesbury in December 2014, this time working for Ecolab UK on Phase 2 of the Chemical Installation.

With approximately $5 billion in annual revenue, US based SPX is a multi-industry manufacturing leader with operations in more than 35 countries and over 14,000 employees worldwide. SPX solutions play a vital role in helping food and beverage producers increase their capacity to more efficiently deliver greater quantities of safer, higher quality products. JWCI Ltd began work for the SPX contract in April 2015 after a successful tender application, and with their enviable reputation and previous history working with Ecolab and Arla on other sites, JWCI was an obvious choice.

The installation required multiple process break-ins under high care conditions to be planned into the work. Due to the plant being operational it was essential for recognised good hygienic installation practice and compliance with Arla hygiene standards - and SPX knew that this would be of no concern to JWCI who have worked under these stringent conditions before. 

Second phase projects for SPX at Aylesbury included the installation of plant and interconnecting pipe work associated with the following: finished milk, cream ageing, Cravendale pasteuriser, Cravendale micro filter plant and Cravendale cream.
Having worked in the food industry for many years JWCI has an enviable reputation in the sector and continues to work alongside some of the largest names in the industry.

Major Project for Ecolab by JWCI Ltd

JWCI ltd are pleased to have been awarded the contract for a major restructure and refit at the Northwich Cheshire site for the global leader in the hygiene industry, Ecolab.This prestigious contract was awarded to JWCI after the world’s largest sustainability services company, Nalco merged with hygiene giant Ecolab.  

The merger means Ecolab now have over 41,000 employees in more than 170 countries. Founded in 1923 the merger brings together two highly complimentary industries to provide global sustainability services and hygiene solutions across the food, beverage, hygiene and medical industries.

The joining of the two businesses saw the Ecolab manufacturing facility at Cheadle Hulme being relocated to join the larger Ecolab/Nalco site at Northwich in Cheshire. 

JWCI have worked on projects for Ecolab previously and proved to be highly competent in their professional manner and expertise both on site and in the design and manufacture stages. 

Rob Pettener from Ecolab UK said “JWCI proved to be a reliable and flexible contractor to EcoLab. JWCI are well known and respected within the industry and have clearly demonstrated a track record to deliver on large and complex installation projects.”

Phase one of this large project was undertaken by JWCI in partnership with Ecolab’s onsite team and  proved such a success that JWCI became solely responsible for Phase two.

Phase one of the contract, which began in December 2012 included supply and installation of pipe work, removal and installation of tanks and mixing vessels plus supply, fabrication and installation of new tailored pipework and mezzanine floor supports. The later phase involved the strip out of the new site which included provision and management of crane lifts and providing all required health and safety documentation surrounding this. JWCI provide a full design, manufacture, installation and maintenance service to their customers and this streamlined ‘one supplier’ approach means greater peace of mind for the client. 

The larger second phase, a complete strip out and replacement project, included decommissioning of existing mixer tanks and pipework plus installing new steam lines, steam traps, valves and instrumentation. New gantries and pipework were fabricated and installed by JWCI’s highly experienced on-site team.

JWCI work to the highest safety standards and are compliant to all current British health and Safety guidelines and best practice schemes. JWCI are proud to be ISO 9001 registered and SafeContractor accredited. They are also CHAS approved and registered with Constructionline to provide the highest standards whilst on-site. 

JWCI’s expertise in providing bespoke solutions tailored to their customers exact requirements meant that Ecolab could streamline their processes and improve efficiency and be assured of excellent workmanship. This coupled with the high level of customer service provided by JWCI meant a winning combination.

JWCI Ltd - Investing in the future

JWCI Limited is a long established company, located in the heart of the UK with our Head Office in Cheadle and manufacturing facilities in Fole, Uttoxeter. We design, construct and install processing equipment for a wide range of customers in the dairy, food, chemical and other process industries.

The current economic climate is proving tough for many businesses but JWCI are ‘bucking the trend’ with big plans over the next 12 months. 

With many years in the industry under their belt  JWCI are investing in a site expansion of their current manufacturing facilities in Fole. The expansion will improve facilities and help meet the increasing demand for high quality engineering.

The larger workshops and improved employee facilities will increase productivity and allow JWCI to undertake larger commissions in-house and reduce manufacturing times.

There will also be a new testing facility for skids and equipment to minimize commissioning on site. 

Holding a larger range of parts in permanent stock, thanks to the new expansion, will reduce delivery times even further for customers ordering plant processing equipment 7 days a week. An important service when plant down time can be so costly for manufacturers.

All this means that JWCI will now be offering a two year guarantee on all their prefabricated work as standard. This increase, from the usual 12 month guarantee offered by many of their competitors, highlights the assurance they have in their products being of the highest quality.

The site expansion is due to be fully operational by July 2012 so why not pay us a visit?

SAFEcontractor Accredited

JWCI Ltd is again proud to be one of the latest group of companies to join a leading edge scheme, designed to help industry improve its safety record. JWCI Ltd have achieved the SAFEcontractor status for the last few years and are pleased to say have been successful again this year. 

The Staffordshire based firm received accreditation from SAFEcontractor, a programme which recognises very high standards of health and safety practice amongst UK contractors. 
Employing 12 people JWCI Ltd is principally involved in the dairy, food and chemical industries with a proven track record for high quality and professional service. Recent clients have included Quenby Hall Dairy, one of only six ‘Stilton’ cheese makers.

“We felt it was important to become SAFEcontractor accredited in order to highlight to potential customers our dedication to best practice and quality of service” Kerry Callear, JWCI Ltd

The company's application to receive SAFEcontractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business. 
SAFEcontractor accreditation is expected to enhance the companys ability to attract new contracts and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by insurers when the company liability policy is up for renewal.
SAFEcontractor accreditation is applicable to most sectors although it is particularly relevant to food manufacture, property, facilities management, retail and leisure sectors, all of which are big users of contract services.
John Kinge, Head of Risk at SAFEcontractor said “Major organisations can no longer run the risk of employing contractors who are not able to prove that they have sound health and safety policies”.
“More companies need to understand the importance of adopting good risk management in the way that JWCI Ltd has done. The firms continued high standards set an example, which hopefully will be followed by other companies within the sector”.
Under the SAFEcontractor system, businesses undergo a vetting process, which examines health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice. Those companies meeting the high standards are included on a database, which is accessible to registered users only via a website, www.safecontractor.com.
