Repeat silo order from PET packaging specialist
Barton Fabrications, Portishead (near Bristol), UK, has completed its eighth silo installation at PET packaging specialist Plastipak Packaging (formerly APPE). The silo contract is part of a major £10M investment made by Plastipak in its UK preform manufacturing platform. The 100t capacity PET granule storage vessel is one of two silos installed this summer to complete the expansion of the plant that is located in Gresford. All the storage silos supplied to Plastipak have been fitted with Barton anti-honking rings.
Commenting on the silo installation Dave Harris, plant engineering manager at Plastipak in the UK said: “The site investment is one of the largest at the Gresford plant since PET preform production commenced here just over 30 years ago and confirms our position as the largest preform manufacturing plant in Europe. Regarding the choice of vessels, Barton Fabrications have been the sole silo supplier on this site for more than 10 years and I am very happy with the company. The latest silos were supplied on a very short lead-time and all installations have been completed on time and with no problems”. www.bartonfabs.co.uk
