Health and safety along with hygiene are certainly to the forefront of all industries now and that includes the agriculture sector.
Irish land has suffered a great deal of flooding in recent years, while yards, sheds and milking parlous have to be kept in exceptional condition and to do this almost every farmer in Ireland possesses a power washer and high pressure pumps
There are many various types of washers and pumps out there, but for top of the range in both, you would do well to beat EuroPumps Ireland.
Headquartered in Ballincollig, Cork for the past number of years, Europumps Ireland are not only a nationwide firm that supply Cat High Pressure pumps hot & cold pressure washers and Reelcraft retractable Hose reels to a large customer base that covers many industries, across the world
These industries include the agricultural, pharmaceutical, oil & gas sectors just to mention a few.
The agricultural side of the business sees them supplying farmers (beef, dairy, sheep, pigs and chicken) as well as marts, creameries and meat factories.
“We would have an extensive customer base across many industries and the agricultural sector would be a massive part of our business,” said EuroPumps Ireland Managing Director Barry Holland.
“Our products are all over the country and recent projects here include work for the likes of Tara Mines in Meath and Dublin Airport. The business is growing all the time and we would feel that we are leaders in our field of expertise,” stated Barry.
Since 1999, EuroPumps have always had a stand at the National Ploughing Championships and Barry feels that the three-day event is the ideal location for them to showcase their products.
“We would always get new clients from the ploughing championships. We have been going there years and it is great to show potential customers what we have to offer and give them the time to explain to them and maybe advise them on what would suit their needs best.”
Providing quality products means the EuroPumps have a vast range of products from the world’s leading suppliers with full installation and support service available to all their customers.
Through over 40 years of experience in the industry, the company has developed the expertise to deal with any queries the customer may have and they will ensure that they will supply the right product to suit their requirements.
Of the products available, many come in petrol and diesel engined power washers as well as electric. Top of the range washers include their Honda petrol engined pressure washers use genuine Honda OHV petrol engines while Europumps supply diesel engines from such renowned manufacturers as Yanmar, Lombardini and Hatz.
Power washers can also be customised to tailor for the customers’ needs, i.e power washers can be mounted onto towed water bowsers for washing of locations where water supply is a problem. These washers can be provided on wheeled trolleys or on a skid base for fixed installations.
“EuroPumps supply an extensive range of cold water power washers. These are powered by various petrol or diesel engines or electric motors. Through the use of different size engines and motors and various brands and model of high pressure pumps we can offer different pressure and flow rate power washers.
“We have customer installations all over Ireland ranging from private users to semi-state organisation to government departments and various industrial applications.”
Service and maintenance are also a huge part of the business as repairs and service to Cat pumps, along with supplying spare parts for pumps and washers and building a system to suit specific design are all areas that the experienced team at EuroPumps Ireland focus on.
“We can call and collect your product which will be repaired and returned ready for operation. We have a number of service agreements on offer. Many of our products need servicing after a certain number of hours use so it important for their smooth operation that they receive this.”
Some of the projects recently completed by the company include the manufacture of a ReelCraft Large Frame hosereel, high pressure wash down systems for the UAE Oil and gas industries; high pressure road wash tanker and Cat pump model 3750 to name just a few.
“All products are under full 12 month warranty. This includes covering defects in workmanship and labour. A proof of purchase will be needed and if it is a technical fault, the product needs to come back to us. We will then fix the problem and return it to the customer.”
There is no doubt that EuroPumps Ireland are a progressive company that pride themselves on delivering top quality products to a satisfied customer base and Barry is pleased with the direction that they are heading towards.
“Business is good and we are growing significantly over the past few years. We have a reputation for supplying top quality products and that will be our focus in the future. Our service and maintenance departments are always there to help and we are looking forward to the future as a company.”
