Celebrating International Women’s Day at IPU

March 11^th, 2022 in Components, Emissions Solutions, Engine Starting, Fuel Conditioning, News

IPU is celebrating International Women’s Day on 8th March 2022. IPU has a growing female workforce and has some advice for females considering a career in engineering. Findings published by the Women’s Engineering Society in 2021 states that women make up 21.80% of the workforce in the engineering sector in the UK. This is still far from where we need to be as an industry. IPU works hard to support gender diversity and equality. The company operates an equal pay policy, which is based on job role and not the gender of the job holder. This is proven in the fact that IPU’s Management Team is almost a 50/50 split, with 5 men and 4 women. As part of IPU’s celebration of…

IPU’s AtmoShield system dramatically reduces emissions on-site

February 28^th, 2022 in Components, Emissions Solutions, Engine Starting, Fuel Conditioning, News

As one of the county’s largest employers, James Hall wanted to enhance its role in the local community by reducing emissions years before regulatory limits came into force.

The company had four goals: bring NOx emissions down from 1,300ppm to well below the limits set by legislation reduce the NOx emissions long before the legislation comes into effect, tackle emissions such as black smoke that may not be covered by legislation, and be ready for any future emissions legislation. Like…

Can you still use Red Diesel after April 2022?

Are you still able to use Red Diesel after April 2022? April, 1st 2022 The countdown is on!

The story of how IPU saved Christmas…

December 16^th, 2021 in Components, Emissions Solutions, Engine Starting, Fuel Conditioning, News

Everyone at IPU hopes that Santa brings you all the presents you want on Christmas morning. We know he’ll be out on his sleigh through the wee, small hours delivering presents all around the world. If it hadn’t been for IPU, it might have been very different… Shoddy maintenance by his elves (always downing tools and moaning about elf & safety – sorry), meant that his facilities at the North Pole were falling apart. This is when IPU stepped in: The Fuel Conditioning team installed a polishing unit to stop cold diesel clogging the sleigh’s engine (the reindeer quit in 2010, complaining that Christmas was only meant to be twelve days long). The Engine Starting team fitted…
