Nottingham Zinc Group has recently completed the installation of a major new alkaline zinc rack line. The computer-controlled line is fully automated and significantly increases zinc plating capacity at the company's Nottinghamshire plant.
Nottingham Zinc Group has increased its commitment to recycling and refurbishment by recently commissioning a new high temperature burn-off oven. The investment in the specially-designed oven, along with the associated material handling equipment, significantly increases NZG's existing in-house capacity to recycle and refurbish supermarket trollies.
Nottingham Zinc Group is pleased to have been chosen as finalist in the annual awards given by the plating industry association, the SEA. The Category 1 Business Achievement Award recognises two successful achievements by NZG - each of which helps to secure the company's future.
Bekaert Handling invested over £0.5 million on an alkaline zinc plating plant and associated effluent treatment plant during 2001.
The traditional view of the metal finisher is one of a small enterprise focused on local industry, marginally meeting environmental regulations, with a return on investment in single figures and little long term strategic planning.
