With over 35 years experience and knowledge of manufacturing variable speed electrical control systems, Drive Systems Ltd provide fixed and variable speed drives, control panels and will commission and install both the mechanical equipment and electrical supplies, as required. Drive Systems Limited is a wholly owned independent company founded in 1986 by its present directors to promote the use of packaged inverter drive systems into a wide range of industrial applications so that they could benefit from the flexibility of control and the large potential energy savings that this, then, emerging new technology could provide. Many areas of industry, from pet food manufacturers to woodworking machine makers and from the nuclear industry to the water companies became valued customers and benefited from bespoke packaged drive systems tailored to their specific application. The water companies soon became the source of the majority of the companies workload, with inverter based drive systems being developed for wet well submersible pump systems, rectangular bacteria bed distributors (both rope hauled and independently driven) and for circular filter bed distributor drives. This latter drive system, enjoying patent protection of its principles of operation, has been a huge success and over 2000 systems have been supplied into all of the UK`s Water Companies, as well as to numerous overseas locations. Drive Systems has recognised the need, not only to provide products and packaged control systems, but also to provide an installation and commissioning service which ensures optimised performance from the existing plant. Drive Systems site programme includes installation of both mechanical and electrical equipment on prepared foundations. The service is not complete without the inter connection of all items of equipment, including cables, cable trays and ducts, as required. Lighting, heating, ventilation are a natural extension of this work.

Pipelife is an established and well respected supplier of polyethylene pipes and recognised as a global leader in the supply of long length extruded solid wall PE pipes. Our long length extruded pipes are produced by Pipelife Norge in Norway. The large, high-quality pipes are extruded at our Stathelle plant using premium PE100 resins and strict factory quality controls. Each pipe is made to order through a seamless, continuous extrusion process that eliminates welds and extends directly from the factory into the fjord. From there, the pipes are transported by tugboat straight to their destination, removing the need for land storage or extensive working areas. This efficient production and delivery method not only ensures exceptional durability and precision but also reduces handling and lowers the overall carbon footprint, making Pipelife a reliable partner for major infrastructure projects worldwide. Located on the shore of a sheltered fjord, Pipelife’s Stathelle plant offers the ideal setting for producing long-length pipes. Its coastal position allows continuous production in a clean, controlled environment with direct access to the sea, meaning pipe lengths are limited only by the fjord’s size and the pipe’s diameter. The facility is equipped with extensive storage areas on both land and water, along with a dedicated wharf for easy loading by ocean-going tugs. Supported by Norway’s reliable infrastructure, the plant benefits from a stable energy supply and consistent access to essential raw materials. Inside, a state-of-the-art production line, enhanced with specialized modifications, ensures the highest manufacturing standards and delivers unique advantages in product quality and performance. Pipelife’s long-length, large-diameter pipes are designed for a wide range of demanding applications, including: Wastewater sea outfalls and diffusers Desalination and power plant intakes and outfalls Cable landfalls Cable protection systems Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) liner ducts Fish return lines
