Zero Liquid Discharge Use Case Companies

Established in 1974, we are one of the UK’s leading Sheet and Bored Piling contractors. We specialise in the design and installation of retaining wall solutions for challenging environments — including rivers, canals, locks, harbours, docks, marinas, reservoirs, and tidal/inter-tidal zones — as well as land-based infrastructure. Our bespoke piling solutions support a wide range of water infrastructure and flood defence projects across the UK and beyond. Delivering Intelligent, Integrated Piling Solutions Ivor King has built its reputation as a trusted name in sheet piling, consistently delivering reliable solutions for retaining structures in even the most complex environments. While sheet piling remains at the heart of our business, we also offer integrated solutions that combine CFA (Continuous Flight Auger) and bored piling techniques, allowing us to provide a flexible, multi-disciplined approach that brings real value to our customers — particularly where projects demand a tailored, hybrid piling solution. Working across tidal and inter-tidal zones, on or adjacent to rivers, canals, docks, locks, reservoirs, and marinas, our piling solutions are designed with the specific challenges of water infrastructure in mind. From flood defence systems to water utility assets and quay wall stabilisation, we understand the complexities of access, ground conditions, environmental sensitivity, and structural integrity in water-based settings. Powered by People, Backed by First-Class Facilities At the core of Ivor King is a highly skilled team — some of the industry’s most experienced engineers, designers, and site operatives — all committed to delivering excellence on every project. We’re supported by our state-of-the-art central hub, which houses a dedicated training centre, comprehensive maintenance workshop and fabrication facilities, and a fully integrated in-house transport and logistics department, ensuring we can respond swiftly and efficiently to customer needs nationwide. Experience, Values and Investment That Make a Difference Our strength lies in the breadth and depth of our knowledge, developed over five decades and grounded in strong traditional family values. This ethos drives our commitment to quality, innovation, and a customer-first approach, ensuring we not only meet but consistently exceed expectations. We aim to build long-term relationships with our clients by offering smart solutions and outstanding service. We’re proud to work across a wide range of sectors — from major civil infrastructure and water utilities to road, rail, and environmental protection and flood alleviation schemes — contributing to vital projects across the UK. Our client portfolio includes leading principal contractors and government agencies, such as the Environment Agency, Canal & River Trust, and Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru (Natural Resources Wales), who trust us to deliver safe, cost-effective, and technically advanced piling solutions. Innovative Equipment and Specialist Techniques With over £15 million invested in the last five years in specialist plant, equipment, and transport infrastructure, we’re fully equipped to meet the most demanding project requirements. Our vibration-free and low-impact piling solutions are particularly well-suited to sensitive environments, including urban locations, heritage sites, and over-water structures. We are also proud to lead the field in silent piling solutions, offering specialist equipment such as the Giken Supercrush system — ideal for hard ground, including rock — and the Giken GRB System, which enables ‘footprint-free’ installations from the top of previously driven piles. These advanced vibration-free techniques are especially effective on sloping ground, restricted sites, and sensitive waterway environments where conventional methods may not be feasible. Please head to our website to look at our Case Studies for specific industry examples of the solutions we’ve created to gain more insight into the expertise and quality of work you can expect from Ivor King. Whatever your piling project, we’re your people.

Xypex is a non-toxic chemical treatment for the waterproofing and protection of concrete. Its primary and most distinguishing performance feature is its unique ability to generate a non-soluble crystalline formation deep within the pores and capillary tracts of the concrete; a crystalline structure that permanently seals the concrete against the penetration of water and other liquids from any direction. Xypex Crystalline Technology was developed in Vancouver in 1969. Since then, in both hemispheres, in every climatic challenge, and in widely varying construction situations, the technology has been tested and proven. In more than 90 countries, the proprietary crystalline waterproofing products of Xypex Chemical Corporation are stocked, sold and supported by a worldwide network of distributors and licensees such as SMR Projects Ltd. It has been over 50 years since Xypex Chemical Corporation first coined the phrase “Concrete Waterproofing by Crystallization”, a statement and concept that represented a radical departure from traditional surface-reliant barrier products of the day. Pursuing an entirely new path, Xypex developed a unique technology that takes advantage of the natural and porous characteristics of concrete. With water as the catalyst, Xypex’s proprietary chemicals react with the natural by-products of cement hydration (calcium hydroxide, mineral salts, mineral oxides, and un-hydrated and partially hydrated cement particles), forming a non- soluble crystalline structure within the interconnected pores and other voids in concrete. In this way, the crystalline structure becomes a permanent, integral part of the concrete matrix itself, preventing the ingress of water and other liquids even under strong hydrostatic pressure, and providing protection against harsh, aggressive environments. Since the introduction of Xypex, tens of thousands of concrete structures around the world have been waterproofed and protected with this unique crystalline technology and, over the years, extensive research, testing and performance success have furthered the awareness, understanding and confidence in Xypex, earning both the technology and the company an enviable reputation as the world standard in crystalline waterproofing. Using the high-power imaging capability of a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), we display visual evidence that clearly differentiates Xypex from all other products in the waterproofing admixtures category. SEM is a technique whereby a precise photographic image of a microstructure is produced by scanning it with a focused beam of electrons. Extremely high degrees of magnification can be attained and, at x500 magnification, Xypex crystalline formations at work can be seen. Our SEM images show conclusively that the many and varied Xypex non- soluble crystalline structures formed within the concrete are unique, and truly have “… NO EQUAL.”
