Transam invests in sixth Davis-Standard EuroBlue extruder

UK-based tubing & profile manufacturer, Transam Extrusions Limited is continuing to invest in US extrusion machinery maker Davis-Standard extrusion equipment. Transam, based in Barton-Le-Clay, Bedfordshire, has experienced significant growth over the past decade and is regarded as one of the UK's leading plastic pipe manufacturers, producing a wide range of both flexible and rigid plastic pipes and profiles up to 180 mm wide.

The relationship between the two companies has grown over the past decade, says Davis-Standard, and has included investment in new Davis-standard extruders, screw technology and other downstream equipment to support the company’s growing business.

Most recently, Transam added a new Davis-Standard EB50 EuroBlue extruder. The EB50 EuroBlue is the sixth Davis-standard extruder, with associated downstream, to be installed at Transam. The machine was ordered and delivered within five days, it says, resulting in minimal production delays for Transam’s clients. In addition, Transam purchased a custom-built Davis-Standard water-bath specifically designed for the company’s unique business requirements.

Transam operates a reinvestment program, which ensures a proportion of their annual profits are allocated for re-investment back into their business in the form of new equipment. The company says it is passionate about British manufacturing and dedicated to offering clients quality product with excellent service.
