Project overview

Greencore Group plc is a leading international manufacturer of convenience foods, supplying a wide range of chilled, frozen and ambient foods to some of the most successful retail and food service customers in the UK and US.

Its factory at Park Royal in London is part of Greencore’s ‘Food to Go’ business, manufacturing pre-packed sandwiches for major supermarket and high street chains, petrol forecourts and convenience stores.

In May 2016 a new tray wash machine was installed in a refurbished area of the factory, using Geberit Mapress Stainless Steel to deliver steam, air plus hot and cold water. This is the first of five phases of works which will utilise the pressing solution.

Why Geberit?

Gregory Pelling, CEO of Miramar Engineering explained their decision to use Geberit Mapress: “During the design process it became apparent that due to the time and space constraints within this project we were going to need to work beyond the normal threaded systems.

“Our Head of Mechanical, Ben Fisher, selected the Geberit Mapress system as the solution.When we presented our recommendation to the client they were impressed with the product selection and reassured by its guarantee. Since installation we have been asked to tender for additional projects for the same client as they were so delighted with the work.”

“Speed of installation was proven during the project undertaking and the presentation of the final product shows the quality of the system. The client’s expectations have been exceeded and the end result is being presented within the group as an example of what is achievable from a good mechanical install.”
Ben Fisher, Head of Mechanical
