BASF
When icy weather caused a series of burst water pipes, BASF’s Paisley plant suffered a disrupted water supply and faced the prospect of a lengthy shutdown.
Race against time
BASF called on Business Stream’s round-the-clock emergency standby service to help fix the damaged pipework.
Our team worked through the night alongside company staff, finding fast and inventive ways to restore the water supply.
BASF’s lost production time was limited to a day and a half, saving £150,000 in production costs.
Business Stream has since advised the company on contingency planning to protect its water pipework from the elements in future.
