Westmoor Performs Under Higher Pressure
February 21st, 2012
Westmoor Engineering Ltd continues to invest in on-going product development and recently, successfully tested a large, watertight hatch to a hydrostatic pressure rating of 2.05 bar. The hatch was developed in-house by Westmoor Project Engineer, Jack McCusker.
The test was conducted at our testing facility in Cramlington and was witnessed by American Bureau of Shipping.
The watertight hatch was specifically developed as a result of our customers request and is yet another example of Westmoor’s continued innovation and ability to meet customer requirements.
Happy New Year
January 6th, 2012
We are pleased to report that 2011 was another successful year for Westmoor. Since 1898, Westmoor has been accredited with the design and manufacture of thousands of efficient ship doors and hatches installed internationally. Throughout 2011we provided watertight doors and hatches for the marine industry specifically naval applications, boats and ship repair. We are proud of our heritage within the marine industry and anticipate our continued involvement with marine projects in 2012. As a result, this year we are implementing a significant research and development programme to ensure our watertight, weather tight and gastight door and hatch range continues to meet the advancing requirements of the marine industry.
In addition to supplying our marine door range, Westmoor developed bespoke design solutions for civil industry and government projects. The accumulation of over a century of knowledge regarding watertight, weather tight and gas tight door solutions enabled Westmoor to provide an enhanced solution for new customers within alternative markets. We continue to welcome new challenges from alternative markets throughout 2012.
Westmoor are committed to product development and our involvement in renewable energy programmes continues to increase due to the requirements for fire rated watertight doors and hatches. We will work closely with Lloyds, DNV and American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) once again in 2012 to ensure the highest quality products for Westmoor customers.
The Westmoor team look forward to the upcoming challenges and opportunities of 2012 and would like to wish our customers and suppliers a happy, prosperous new year.
