We work closely with our partners to continuously develop cutting-edge world-class technology to further improve production for our automotive clients.
CONSTRUCTION
The construction sector is characterised by high performance materials with minimum environmental impact engineered at maximum efficiency. With end products often including expensive additives we can supply and install a range of blenders that manage material to 0.01% accuracy.
Our low energy dryers ensure material is carefully prepared prior to processing, with optimum energy, alleviating wastage from faulty products.
As recycled materials become more prevalent in building, we have innovated to deal with inconsistent material flow. Big bag frames can be fitted with vibration motors and/or massaging paddles, which are designed to aid material flow.
INDUSTRIAL AND ELECTRICAL
The high-tech industrial and electrical sector relies on premium products, operating to the highest level of detail, backed by technical excellence and supervisory support. Our global network grants us access to the best equipment from around the world to service this high-quality sector.
We support the ongoing research and development of techniques and materials to deliver maximum efficiency whilst minimising environmental impacts.
CONSUMER PRODUCTS
We understand that consumer products require optimal product consistency, in both quality and colour. Colour is of the utmost importance relying on expensive masterbatch for uniformity, and the range of dosers available from Summit Systems, enable colour application to 0.01% accuracy preventing overdosing and managing standardisation.
This equipment drives plant efficiency saving energy, material, labour, time, and cost. Additional tailored products range from automated material feed systems, through accurate material dosing to beside the press granulation.
HOUSEWARES
We understand that products in the houseware sector require optimal consistency with priorities ranging from hardness to colour, and of course, quality. Accurate application of additives is a key drive for the group to maintain uniformity. The range of blenders and dosers available from Summit Systems, operating to 0.01% accuracy are prevalent within this market, aiding standardisation and prevent overdosing.
Our wider range of automation products support economic production on a mass scale. Items include material feed systems, dryers, blenders, dosers, conveyors, and granulators.
MEDICAL AND PHARMACEUTICAL
We understand the importance of having carefully tailored equipment built to meet stringent requirements of the medical and pharmaceutical sector. Having achieved a solid track record within the sector, our installation teams are able to work to the highest levels, essential for operation within an ISO regulated environment.
With our extensive process cooling product range and engineering knowledge from our sister company, Summit Process Cooling, we are readily equipped to provide the highest quality cooling equipment to suit medical, pharmaceutical, and scientific application needs whilst ensuring low energy usage, a long working life and consistent reliable operation.
PACKAGING
Packaging is one of our largest market sectors with some of our largest and oldest clients. Part of our success is due to a passion for the importance of packaging to protect and distribute products. Packaging partnerships have enabled us to grow and innovate to ensure we can provide the very best value for our client base.
We are working with UK Plastic Recycles to help businesses avoid the Plastic Packaging Tax, introduced in April 2022, and utilise higher levels of recycled material in their plastic packaging. We have a range of granulators and dosing units from 4 global suppliers designed to improve the percentage of recycled material within your plastic production processes.
We feel it is our role within the plastics industry, to provide the most efficient and cost-effective ancillary equipment on the market, and with the products in our portfolio we can provide a multitude of options to enable businesses to exceed the 30% recycled content threshold set by the Plastic Packaging Tax.
