Spencer ECA opens new office in Ireland

Spencer ECA opens new office in Ireland

South-Wales based supplier of construction industry support, ground-works and landscape services, Spencer Environmental Care Associates, is pleased to announce the recent opening of its new office in Ireland.

Aiming to attract new markets and expand its activity beyond the UK, specifically for its revolutionary SpiderPlow ‘trenchless’ pipe and cable installation system, Spencer ECA sees this extension to its operation as a significant step in its business development.

Currently, Spencer is the only company in the UK and Ireland to own and operate a SpiderPlow, which is regarded as the most efficient, environmentally friendly and effective way of installing pipes and cables below ground. Because the SpiderPlow cuts, installs and back-fills - all in one operation, its use is particularly significant when working in ecologically and environmentally sensitive areas.

Added to this, its efficient and low-impact method means that it offers a significant reduction in time, money and risk. It also operates very effectively on soft ground and marshland, has the ability to work on almost any terrain and can manoeuvre around most obstacles, as well as span ditches and even shallow rivers.

In view of the benefits SpiderPlow has to offer, Spencer has been increasingly called upon to install cables for wind-energy projects, the system proving ideal for both on-shore sites and, more recently, the laying of export cables through the transition zone, in the case of off-shore installations.

The SpiderPlow is equally as effective when installing pipes of up to 12” in diameter, which are regularly used in the installation of water and sewage rejuvenation schemes.

“The opening of our new office in Ireland allows us the opportunity to offer our services to a new range of clients and contractors”, said Business Development Manager for Spencer ECA Charlie Jukes. “We are aware of a number of projects currently being considered in Ireland for which the SpiderPlow would prove to be ideal and therefore our new office allows us to respond to customers more quickly and effectively.”

Spencer’s Ireland office is based in Trim, County Meath and is headed up by Con Farren - confarren@spencereca.com.
