Our MD, Rob Bell, attended the 2016 BAFSA Challenge at Mottram Hall, Cheshire on Thursday 23rd June after an invitation from Grundfos. Rob and fellow BAFSA team members took part in a series of (supposedly!) fun team-building & networking events with the day ending in a barbeque and presentation. The day, which was held in the slightly malodorous but picturesque gardens of Mottram Hall …
We pride ourselves on our top quality fire sprinkler parts and top customer service, however given that the majority of our products are made to bespoke specifications, the room for error is substantial.

A number of presentations were given and, as usual, many thought-provoking issues were raised. Fire sprinklers within residential and domestic environments are a growing trend and …
At Sale Engineering we have noticed a recent increase in the number of requests for air compressors which are asked to perform at what are fairly low pressures and/or tight differentials. In fact, during the last quarter we have supplied over three times as many low pressure models than the previous quarter! As many of you will know, our standard …

It’s been an interesting year at Sale Engineering. We’ve achieved some good steps forward and we hope all of our customers have been very happy with our products, service and responsiveness (or at least that you’ve told us about it if you’re not!).
