Civil and MEICA engineering companies Barhale in the UK and Response in Ireland have launched a new business with a dedicated focus on design, manufacture, delivery, installation and commissioning mechanical, electrical and ICA services across the UK.
Set up with the goal of becoming a market leader in the field, between them Barhale-Response has 50 years of water and wastewater experience, focusing on the needs and requirements of industrial, municipal and pharmaceutical clients.
General Manager David Welch said the new organisation had the expertise and backing of two huge companies and the capability to keep all MEICA works including 3D Design and BIM in-house rather than out sourcing.
Barhale-Response will focus on:
- Establishing and promoting TOTEX solutions.
- Continuing optimisation of BIM and 3D modelling.
- Extending and developing offsite fabrication capability.
- Carbon reduction through clear plans and practices.
Barhale-Response also designs, fabricates and installs made-to-measure products tailored exactly to clients’ needs, including scraper bridges, picket fence thickeners, aeration systems, chemical dosing systems, screening systems, grit removal and steelwork.
HUBER Technology UK & Ireland are inviting people to register for their March webinar where they will be providing information about HUBER water intake screens for municipal and industrial applications.
