Heat recovery and decarbonisation

Decarbonising our buildings to support future generations

We design and install specialist heat recovery systems that reuse waste heat generated by production processes. Our highly experienced team of engineers will review your existing installation to highlight any potential areas that can capture any waste heat or replace existing processes to help reduce energy cost.

We also review your existing installation and look to remove carbon heavy processes, replacing them with greener renewable energy plant.

We can design and install a bespoke heat recovery system that:

Uses all the waste heat without damaging the plant
Reduces energy consumption and support a facility’s move to become environmentally friendly
Is delivered by a team working within strict hygiene and operating conditions

For example 10% of all industrial energy is used by compressed air systems – and 94% of this energy is emitted as waste heat. By installing a heat recovery unit to harvest the heat, it can be reused or converted into hot water for use elsewhere.

With over 50 years experience of working with HVAC, air handling, heat pumps and now, recovery systems, you can rely on our specialist knowledge to design, install and maintain the system.

Numerous industrial environments have committed to harvesting their waste heat with an Arcade managed solution.

Thanks to our specialist expertise in heat recovery decarbonisation, we can offer our clients a full turnkey solution across our suite of services – including:

An initial consultation to really understand what you need
Shared ideas and recommendations
Detailed project development plan
Comprehensive design
Installed fully operational solution
Bespoke after care maintenance package

Facilities that can benefit include:

Print Factories
Car Plants
Beverage Industry

Arcade has been our go to Mechanical Contractor for a number of years. The team is diligent, amenable and proactive, and they have never let us down. Arcade takes on our more complicated mechanical, plumbing and BMS packages and are exceptionally capable at co-ordinating the M&E design alongside our design consultants. I would be more than happy to recommend Arcade for future work.

Thomas Biggins, Contracts Director, Conamar

Arcade recently designed, built and installed an air-to-water heat exchanger system for our heating/hot water system. They comprehensively detailed the return on investment, which enabled a swift approval from the Board of Directors. Then the project was accurately scheduled and executed and we’re reaping the rewards.

I can wholeheartedly recommend that you give Arcade a go for your next project.

A. Millington, Projects Manager, Precision Colour Printing Ltd

I was very impressed with Arcade. The knowledgeable team installed a new thermal oil heating and a water filtration system in a clean room used to manufacture pharmaceutical products quickly and efficiently, working closely with my site team.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Arcade for similar projects.

Adam MacKenzie, COO CannaPHARMA Ltd

I have worked with Arcade over several years on some fast paced high prestige projects, mainly in the commercial building sector. Arcade are a reliable company and provide an exceptional service from design to installation.

John O’Donnell, Contracts Director at Krypton Building Services

NCS asked Arcade to be a business partner to help deliver successful, working archive and museum stores that provide genuinely protective environments for heritage collections. This means avoiding unnecessary and potentially damaging air conditioning and poor quality construction.

Arcade's expertise in designing, modelling and constructing passive climate structures along with a deep understanding of mechanical systems, makes them an ideal partner for NCS; developing modern, forward-thinking approaches to sustainable conservation storage, reducing institutions' energy and maintenance costs, and contributing to a lower carbon footprint for the heritage sector.

Chris Woods, Director at National Conservation Service

The working environment of CERN on occasion imposes sudden changes to the detailed planning, but Arcade dealt with these well, showing excellent flexibility… the engineers were able to use their good design skills to define the technical solution and meet CERN’s requirements.

Michele Battistin, Section Leader in the Cooling and Ventilation Group at CERN

At Wenlock Spring, we worked with Arcade to undertake major upgrades to our bottling facility. The installation of a Biomass Boiler and ancillary services provides effective heating for our processes. Arcade's expertise on Process Engineering has allowed us to fully automate our Dosing, CIP cleaning and Tank control.

Bruce Orme, Director at Wenlock Spring

We’re confident that the Arcade approach can provide the most effective commercial solution across our range of services and solutions. Let’s explore how we can work together.
