As part of their ongoing decarbonisation strategy, British Sugar launched a project to install three brand-new evaporators at their sugar processing facility. This initiative is expected to reduce site emissions by 20,000 tonnes of carbon annually, playing a critical role in meeting sustainability goals and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.
Pipetech was tasked with the fabrication and installation of all necessary pipework, which included both stainless and carbon steel piping ranging from DN25 to DN1200. Using in-house drawing works, the team ensured that all pipework was fabricated to strict quality assurance standards, meeting the complex requirements of the new evaporator systems. The project was completed ahead of schedule, with the evaporators set to be commissioned before the start of the 2025/26 sugar beet campaign, contributing to a significant reduction in carbon emissions and improving operational efficiency.
