Douglas Galbraith, Operations Manager at Bardon Hill Quarry said “Though we work to eliminate breakdowns from our operation (and have succeeded in hugely reducing them), before Christmas we suffered a significant breakdown on our Fuller.
“I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for your responsiveness, quality of work, technical approach and thoughtfulness in solving the issue.
“Working through Christmas is a challenge in itself, but our teams dovetailed well and not only achieved our own planned shutdown works but successfully restored our Fuller to production in a timely manner”.
