The Stornoway Port Authority has awarded Recom Ice Systems the development work of an ice plant with storage and delivery system.
Situated 30 miles off the north west coast of Scotland, the Port of Stornoway is the main seaport of the Hebridean Island chain and provides a vital link to mainland Britain. The Port of Stornoway is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year and used to be a major fishing port. Today it still has a comprehensive infrastructure of support services for the fishing industry.
Recom’s managing director Stef Bouhuijs, said, “This project reflects our ongoing commitment to expand our European operations. We are well-positioned to grow our European backlog by executing large-scale projects.”
The plant will be commissioned under supervision of Recom this month and will be operational in early December.
The company is also launching the Recom Ice Machine Configurator for commercial flake ice machines from 0.5t to 2.5t production capacity per 24 hours.
Customers can choose their capacity, refrigerant, storage, where they would like it to be shipped and more. Recom’s commercial flake ice machines are used mostly in the fishing industry.
