UK water industry goes for Rotork

Rotork's UK water industry framework portfolio for electric valve actuators, control systems and support services has been augmented by the recent award of four new agreements.

Rotork's UK water industry framework portfolio for electric valve actuators, control systems and support services has been augmented by the recent award of four new agreements.

In the first, Rotork will supply a complete package of valve actuation services to Yorkshire Water, encompassing actuators and control systems for new or existing plant at water and waste treatment sites throughout the area.

This is Yorkshire Water's first framework agreement to cover valve actuation equipment, further strengthening the close relationship that has been developed with Rotork over many years.

In a similar move, West of Scotland Water (now Scottish Water) has signed up Rotork to supply electric actuators and support services for new plant and refurbishments.

This agreement comes at a time when an important modernisation programme is being planned and implemented at clean and waste water plants throughout this area of Scotland.

Meanwhile, Severn Trent Water has reappointed Rotork for a further framework period following the expiry of its original five year agreement.

Rotork's proven ability to adapt to and accommodate Severn Trent's demanding standards for equipment suppliers has made a significant contribution to the renewal decision.

For example, Rotork works closely with Severn Trent's chosen valve suppliers, providing stocks of actuators and a range of services designed to optimise supply chain performance.

Finally, Rotork's framework agreement with Southern Water has also been extended for a further period, increasing Rotork's position in the UK water market.

Rotork has been amongst the pioneers in establishing such agreements.

In addition to the above, Rotork has frameworks with Thames Water and South West Water and Northumbrian Water.
