Enhancing dilapidated air pollution and odour control equipment
19/12/2025 ERG (Air Pollution Control) Ltd
In a strategic move designed to further its aim of becoming the leading supplier of plastic reactor and scrubbing systems in Europe, ERG Process Technologies has acquired specialist industrial plastic fabrication manufacturer, Hygrade Industrial Plastics.
ERG already provide odour maintenance solutions to every UK water company (including Thames Water, Southern Water and Scottish Water as framework suppliers), with this latest purchase significantly boosting the Group’s presence at industrial sites requiring process engineering for gas cleaning and odour abatement.
‘Reinforces odour and industrial maintenance services to UK wastewater and process industries’
Richard Hanson, CEO of ERG Air Pollution Control Ltd * commented:
"This important new acquisition is a natural extension of ERG's long-term growth strategy. Hygrade brings unique technical expertise, a solid reputation, and capabilities that will allow us to deliver technically better solutions to our customers.”
Hanson says that the acquirement enhances ERG’s proven expertise in manufacturing plastic pressure vessels in full compliance with the Pressure Equipment Directive and BS EN 13121 (GRP tanks and vessels with ellipsoidal and torispherical dished ends). And with Rugby’s key central location, it reinforces its odour and industrial maintenance services to the UK wastewater and process industries, as Troy Gunn, General Manager at ERG APC Maintenance, explains:
‘Create major savings by repairing and enhancing dilapidated air pollution and odour control equipment’
“We now plan to raise the bar with our maintenance services that already create major savings by repairing and enhancing dilapidated air pollution and odour control equipment. This includes replacing spent bio-media, failed scrubber internals, and various air pollution filter components.”
He added: “By expanding customer care and strengthening our sustainable practices, we aim to provide even greater support to our customers with advanced monitoring and diagnostics so that ERG systems operate at optimum levels.”
In addition to the wastewater industry, ERG also successfully operates in several industrial sectors, including pharmaceutical, healthcare, chemicals, metallurgical, PGM metal finishing and renewable energy.
