Manufacturing
Machine installation and relocation, insulation, access, coatings, M&E and heat tracing — self-delivered and planned around your production, with full engineering behind it.
Overview
Uptime is the measure. Everything else follows from it.
In manufacturing, an engineering decision is judged by what it does to output. BESAT works with manufacturers to install and relocate machinery, upgrade plant and infrastructure, and maintain the services around production — planned around your schedule so lines come back on time and stay running.
Our directly-employed teams deliver insulation and cladding, scaffolding and access, painting and protective coatings, mechanical and electrical installation, and heat tracing, alongside machine moving, positioning and reinstallation. Having the trades in-house means a machine move, its services connection and the fabric work around it are sequenced by one team rather than negotiated between three.
Around that sits multi-discipline engineering and design, specialist equipment supply through our global PP&E network, secure and conditioned storage for machinery awaiting installation, procurement, project and construction management, commissioning, and quality and SHEQ management.
From a single equipment upgrade to a full facility expansion or line relocation, we can take the scope end to end under one point of responsibility, or provide the specific trades and capacity you need when the plant is down.
Sector Expertise
Insulation & Cladding
Thermal and acoustic insulation with cladding to process plant, pipework, ductwork and utilities — improving efficiency, reducing noise and protecting personnel.
Scaffolding & Access
Scaffold design, erection, inspection and dismantling for plant, roof, high-level and confined access — arranged to keep routes and production areas clear.
Painting & Protective Coatings
Surface preparation and coating of plant, structural steel, floors and building fabric — protecting assets, marking safe zones and lifting the look of the facility.
Mechanical & Electrical
Pipework and equipment installation, machine services connection, power distribution, control panels and instrumentation across production and utilities.
Heat Tracing
Electrical and steam trace heating design, installation, testing and maintenance for freeze protection, viscosity control and process temperature maintenance.
Machine Installation & Relocation
Collection from the manufacturer or your site, rigging and heavy lift, positioning, reinstallation and services connection — with secure, conditioned storage available in between.
Engineering, Plant Upgrades & Expansion
Multi-discipline engineering and design, plant and equipment upgrades, facility expansion, and energy efficiency improvements across process and utility systems.
Planned Maintenance, Quality & SHEQ
Planned maintenance and reliability programmes, inspection and test plans, and health, safety and environmental management led from within our own team.
How We Work
One team across the whole move, not three.
A machine installation is rarely just a lift. It is decommissioning and disconnection, transport or storage, positioning, services, guarding, insulation and finishes, then commissioning — and most of the delay comes from the gaps between the contractors doing each part. BESAT holds those trades in-house and sequences them as one programme, with our own supervision on site and a single point of contact for you. Work is planned around your production calendar, mobilised for shutdowns, weekends or planned windows where needed, and controlled through inspection and test plans and our own SHEQ management. Take the whole scope end to end, or call on the individual trades and capacity you need.
