TWI accreditation

The skills of all Niplast’s qualified welders have been recognised with The Welding Institute’s (TWI) accreditation. Simpson Thomson Filtration, manufacturer of Niplast Tanks, was approached by TWI to review how the recognised qualification could offer new business opportunities, particularly in the offshore wind industry sector.

 Fabrication technicians, Lee Dervan and Mark Richardson successfully completed the assessment following a two-day hot gas and extrusion welding qualification programme to BS EN 13067, for welding polypropylene and polyethylene.

The team’s acknowledged skills in welding thermoplastic sheet and pipe offer customers guaranteed quality assurance and further confidence in the manufacture of Niplast Storage Tanks, which are manufactured to BS EN 12573 and  DVS 2205, to a maximum capacity of 150,000 litres.
