Hydratight opens West Coast hub
ENGINEERING services and joint integrity
company Hydratight has set up a major new
facility in Concord, California, for operations
across the US western seaboard.
The new facility, in the heart of northern
California’s oil refinery district, will be
Hydratight’s regional hub: a ‘product
supermarket’ for the rental and sale of
equipment to service power stations,
refineries and other industrial facilities
across the whole of the western US.
The Concord site, which replaces
the company’s Sacramento facility,
covers 10,000ft2 and will house all sales,
engineering and management functions
as well as a fully equipped workshop
with assembly testing, refurbishing and
preparation stations on-site. The building
also includes full-scale training facilities,
so product instruction and information can
be offered to customers.
“The 70 mile move to this new, larger
facility gives us a more strategic location and
larger training facility,” said Rory Abrams.
“Customers all over the west coast will have
easier access to all our services and we look
forward to increasing our rental and training
business in the coming year.”
This is the second major facility opened
by Hydratight this year. In June the East
Coast hub was opened in Somerset,
New Jersey, offering similar facilities to
customers across the US eastern seaboard.
It also brings together Hydratight operations
in Cranford and Flemington to be the new
centre of excellence for nuclear products
and service.
