Annual Centrum Pile Group Factory Meeting

Last week, the Centrum Pile Group met up in Germany for the Annual factory meeting, where they exchanged thoughts and experiences from the last 12 months.

Representatives from each factory travelled to the Centrum Pile factory in Germaringen, Germany where they discussed new developments and ideas to ensure the Centrum Group continues to be leaders of pile manufacturing in Europe.

From Centrum Pile UK, General Manager Paul Pendleton and Process Engineer Ben Bridges attended the two-day event which was headed up by Lars Christensen, director of the Centrum Group.

Ben Bridges summarised the meeting:

“Last week, Paul and I attended the annual Centrum Factory Meeting hosted this year at Centrum Pfaehle in Germany. During our time there we took part in several presentations looking at the production and health & safety performance of each factory and discussed changes to improve this in each location.”

“We also had the opportunity to visit Pfeifer in Memmingen, a manufacturer of lifting systems, where we were given a factory tour and discussed a potential partnership to develop a new lifting system for our piles.”

“Another large part of the meeting was planning the implementation of the maintenance software ‘MaintMaster’ in all factories Europewide. The Danish and Swedish factories currently use ‘MaintMaster’ so they led this discussion and guided us on how to begin with deployment. In general, the Factory Meeting was informative with many ideas discussed and the knowledge shared. These will now be implemented in the coming months.”
