Managing director Mark Whettall said that recognition for district heating systems had generated demand for CPV’s range of pre-insulated steel and plastic pipes.
“This growth in the market has resulted in us needing to increase both our production and stockholding facilities with additional space in excess of some 3,500 square metres,” he said. “This means that we’ll be able to supply many more orders directly from stock, speeding up the way in which we can service our customers’ projects – as timescales are usually critical – particularly when they are digging-up busy city streets or residential areas.”
Mr Whettall added: “It’s an exciting time for the district heating industry; after decades of promotion and lobbying, the technology has finally got its due recognition. Many new, high-profile systems are being installed in towns and cities throughout the UK and this only looks set to increase – particularly as the Heat Strategy published earlier this year by the Department of Energy & Climate Change (DECC) clearly underlines the role that district heating will play in lowering greenhouse gas emissions.”
