Sykes Pumps delivers seamless drainage solutions on site

When our customers site required comprehensive drainage maintenance, they turned to Sykes Pumps for a reliable and efficient solution. The project involved providing temporary overpumping for various areas of the site, including loading bays, while discharging to the on-site water treatment plant.

Our engineers swiftly responded with a tailored approach, deploying four 6″ Super Wispa pumps equipped with deep sea panels and float switches.
