Case Story Croda Chemicals- Major Efficiency Improvements with a Total Calibration Solution

Product catalog summary

Introduction
Croda Chemicals Europe Ltd., a supplier of speciality chemicals, operates in 25 countries with over 1,600 employees. One of its manufacturing sites is located at Rawcliffe Bridge, East Yorkshire, UK. The site faced challenges with its manual instrument calibration procedures, which were time-consuming and required compliance with industry standards.

Situation
The existing calibration process involved manually filling out certificates for over 250 instruments per manufacturing area, leading to significant time consumption. The need for a more efficient system was evident to meet business needs and maintain ISO 9002 accreditation.

Solution
Croda implemented Beamex's calibration solutions, including the MC5-IS Intrinsically Safe Multifunction Calibrators, CMX calibration management software, and PGV and PGM calibration hand-pumps. These tools were chosen for their ease-of-use, cost-effectiveness, and local support.

Main Benefits
The adoption of Beamex's solutions resulted in major time savings, with an average of 4 weeks saved per technician annually. The CMX software provided reliability, industry-accepted certificate formats, and an adaptable database, enhancing the site's calibration efficiency and documentation management.

Conclusion
The implementation of Beamex's calibration solutions at Croda's Rawcliffe Bridge site has significantly improved efficiency and compliance with industry standards. The positive experience with Beamex included excellent training and customer support, contributing to the successful achievement of calibration targets.
