Eco-friendly Heat Exchanger


L&G Engineering is pleased to announce great results from a wet heat exchange system that we installed at a prestigious manufacturing company.

This 44kw unit uses waste from one of the fryer’s exhaust flues. The heat is recovered from the 300ºC flue gas and used to heat the thermal water storage vessels, providing hot water for the showers and underfloor heating in the new amenity block. This reduces the flue emissions into the atmosphere to a temperature of 90ºC.

Here at L&G we aim to be at the forefront of this kind of technology, installing systems that ensure optimum efficiency and clever use of available resources. Lowering the environmental impact of industry is high on our agenda.

Further Skillweld Success!


L & G Engineering is pleased to announce further success by one of our bright, young apprentices in the Skillweld National Welding Competition.

Reece Laurie took part in the East Anglian semi-finals at Great Yarmouth College with fellow students Dean Chesters and Raymond Legg, exercising great skill to win the heat. Reece hopes to be amongst the top 10 highest scorers to make it through to the grand final, following in the footsteps of L & G apprentice Josh Peek, who participated last year, winning the bronze medal in this prestigious competition.

Entrants to the Skillweld competition have to complete a number of timed tests, with their work being carefully scrutinised by a panel of judges, meaning that they need to demonstrate both speed and accuracy in their work.

Following the heat, Reece declared that he was “very happy to have won” and had “really enjoyed taking part”. We’d like to congratulate him on his successful performance and wish him good luck in his quest for the finals.

Gas Pipe Installation For Camstar Herbs


One of L&G Engineering’s tailor-made projects has been the installation of a gas main to supply the furnace used in the herb-drying process at Suffolk-based herb producers Camstar.

Camstar are major herb suppliers, growing, drying, freeze drying and freezing a comprehensive range of popular herbs. They also blend herbs and spices to the requirements of individual customers.

Camstar’s new, powerful (6000kw, 20 MBTU, 6m) furnace plays a major part in the herb-drying process, which involves blowing preheated air through a large, rotating drum.

This was a great project to work on, one of many that L&G undertake for manufacturers and suppliers of top quality food products.

Washdown System For Vion


L&G Engineering has designed, manufactured and installed a heat pack for a high pressure, hot water washdown system, at high quality meat and poultry producers, Vion Food Group.

The new skid-mounted buffer tank and twin 900kw heat exchangers and pumps were installed at one of Vion’s Norfolk poultry facilities, and are controlled by a custom-built PA control panel, which can be integrated with factory BMS system if required. This system enables rigorous hygiene standards to be maintained. It is essential for equipment in the food production industry to undergo high-pressure, high temperature cleansing, using efficient water-spraying technology, in order to satisfy Health and Safety requirements.

L&G Engineering has experience in the production and installation of specialist equipment used in many branches of the food production industry, providing many prominent manufacturers and suppliers with up-to-the-minute, high quality systems and machinery.

Our 10th Anniversary Trip


This year we celebrated our 10th anniversary here at L&G Engineering, having enjoyed much success since our humble beginnings working from a small garage. To mark this great achievement, we took our fantastic team away from our Rackheath premises to enjoy the delights of Benidorm!

A fantastic time was had by all, with everyone loving the great hotel, banana boat (inflatable speed boat) and array of clubs and bars. It was a delight to share some non-work time with all the guys, and we’d like to thank them for making it a fantastic four days, as well, of course, for all their hard work that made this trip possible in the first place!

Without such a great workforce, L&G wouldn’t have prospered and grown into the successful and busy company that it is today. Thank you to everyone who has helped us to reach this great milestone!

Thanking all our great staff and clients – Ady and Dave
