AMBRELL, a manufacturer of induction

heating systems, has announced that it

is changing the name of its UK operation

from Cheltenham Induction Heating to

Ambrell Ltd.

Ambrell acquired Cheltenham Induction

Heating in 2005. The acquisition resulted

in an integrated organisation that has

benefitted from the synergies that each

operation offered.

Ambrell’s European operations have

expanded considerably since the 2005

acquisition, as has its brand recognition,

so it was decided to bring its UK operation

under the parent brand although the

name change will not impact day-to-day

operations at the UK location. All contracts

remain valid, the operations in Cheltenham

are unchanged, and Cheltenham Induction

Heating’s customers will continue to

receive the same level of service.

“Given the continued growth we’re

enjoying across Europe and the world, it

made sense to bring Cheltenham Induction

Heating under the Ambrell brand,” said

Ambrell vice-president of business

development Bruce N Stewart.

“We exhibit at a wide range of

tradeshows and events, have customers

with locations in multiple countries, and

by changing the Cheltenham Induction

Heating brand to Ambrell Ltd, it will

minimise confusion across the continent

and maximise our marketing investments.”

Ambrell products are CE certified and

manufactured in an ISO9001:2008 certified

facility to ensure quality.

Prospective customers can leverage

the company’s Applications Lab to

ensure systems are built to their heating

requirements.

Ambrell has installed over 10,000

systems in more than 50 countries.

Water resources to serve children in India

BLACK & Veatch, a global engineering,

consulting and construction company, is

providing clean, safe drinking water to

impoverished children and their families,

supported by Children International, a

US-based humanitarian organisation,

by funding construction of water wells in

India. The company’s Building a World

of Difference Foundation funded the

construction of four tube wells near Kolkata,

India, where approximately 300 families

and 250 children attending a nearby school

are benefiting from new sources of water.

“Each of these wells will provide clean

drinking water to families who would

otherwise not have it,” said Dean Oskvig,

president and CEO of Black & Veatch’s

global energy business. Mr Oskvig also

serves as the chairman of Children

International’s board of directors.

In India building tube wells is a

good method to provide clean water to

communities. A tube well is a type of water

well in which a long 5" to 8" pipe is bored

into the water table. The lower end is fitted

with a strainer, and a pump at the top lifts

water to fill a concrete reservoir to facilitate

bathing or washing. The wells are then

used as a community water source for

families lacking running water.

The Building a World of Difference

Foundation is committed to improving the

infrastructure of communities where Black

& Veatch works, as well as focusing on the

betterment of education, health and human

services, the environment, and public safety

and emergency services. This commitment

is also underscored by the fact that many

of the children and families who will benefit

from the tube wells live on less than $1.25

a day, in greatly under-developed, poverty

stricken areas. Children International

provides children around the world with

medical and dental care, educational

support and critical life-skills to help them

become healthy, self-reliant adults.
