The range of black and galvanised malleable iron pipe fittings manufactured by Crane are now approved by the Loss Prevention Council Board (LPCB) for use in sprinkler installations.
Crane Limited, a Crane Co. company, announces that it has purchased the pipeline coupling and fitting businesses from Glynwed Pipe Systems, a subsidiary of Etex Group S.A, including the Victaulic, Viking Johnson, Helden and Wask branded products.
Crane were announced winners of the ‘Training Initiative of the Year’ award and were runners up in the ‘Marketing Initiative of the Year’ category at the Annual Heating and Ventilating News Awards.
The Victaulic grooved pipe jointing system has been used for various water, fire protection and sprinkler systems for Swiss Re’s new headquarters at 30 St Mary Axe in London.
The Victaulic jointing system was recently selected to significantly reduce installation times in association with the refurbishment of the Birmingham Hippodrome Theatre and the new Millennium Point Building in Birmingham city centre.
The heating and air-conditioning systems within the new Ground Transport Interchange at Manchester Airport are controlled by the latest fan coil management system from Crane Fluid Systems.
Victaulic’s Mechanical Grooved Pipe Jointing System has been specified to meet the high requirements and performance demands of a new project for Land Securities, where installation speed and flexibility were imperative.
