The rollers and drums produced by Hallamshire Engineering Services

Wakefield-based Hallamshire Engineering Services (HES), a global designer and manufacturer of materials-handling equipment, has recently completed a large order for Fakenham-based machine manufacturer Ploeger UK (Oxbo).

The order includes the supply of a range of Hallamshire Engineering’s ‘state of the art’ rollers and drums including solid, spiral and rubber-coated variations which will be applied within the agricultural industry. HES’s rollers and pulleys are manufactured to customer specification from its facilities in Wakefield, West Yorkshire and can be applied across a vast range of industries.

HES has been supplying high-quality rollers and drums to the agricultural industry for many years and this latest contract is testament to the quality and service we provide.”

Oxbo site manager Julian Smith said: “We chose to work with HES for this order because of the high quality of service that it has previously provided us with. It is a working relationship that we are pleased to have nurtured over the years, and we are delighted with the work conducted by the HES team once again.”
