JOHN Thompson, a partner in energy and environmental solutions through value engineering and innovation, has expanded its product and service offering to include industrial heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
John Thompson’s HVAC systems (formerly ACTOM HVAC systems) provide design, manufacture, installation, commissioning and after-sales services for single component and full-integrated systems. With many years of comprehensive environmental solutions experience, John Thompson is conscious of the need to provide systems with a high value relative to the installation, operations and maintenance costs.
Textile air engineering
“We provide air engineering solutions and air handling systems including air washers, air distributors, rotary air filters and bale press systems to the textile industry,” says John Thompson’s air quality solutions’ general manager Tobie Jansen.
According to Jansen, high-performance textile mills and pharmaceutical companies make tremendous demands on room climate, air displacement, process air, filtration and waste handling. Air engineering plays a vital role in the textile industry by controlling these conditions to create the necessary climate for machines and processes to function effectively. Efficient air engineering is important for economical production across various industries.
Cleanroom technology
John Thompson HVAC systems has extensive technical expertise across a wide variety of typical pharmaceutical research and manufacturing tasks. These are associated with weighing rooms, sampling booths, dispensing, pass boxes, component and media preparation, granulation, compression, formulation, gowning/ change rooms, airlocks and liquids filling suites. “The design of our cleanroom technology solutions is in line with the stringent requirements of the pharmaceutical industry and has the relevant certifications,” says Jansen.
