Capabilities

Engineering and manufacturing connected from the first brief to delivery.

Garendon coordinates design, fabrication, coatings, inspection and quality records against one scope and programme, with one accountable route from the first concept to finished steel.

01

Design & consultancy

Garendon leads concept development, layout, frame sizing, materials selection, opening positions and load paths. We bring buildability and inspection into the design before the package is released for production.

We work with clients that have an established design team and those that need design support. The project scope sets design responsibility, technical approvals and the drawing review route before work starts.

Manufacturing

The approved drawing pack is converted into finished steel under one controlled manufacturing plan. Garendon coordinates technical queries, programme and project requirements across materials, preparation, welding, finishing and the records required for the project file.

Welding and production controls follow the agreed scope. Where EN 1090 applies, we confirm the execution requirements, production route and inspection records before manufacture. The project specification sets visual inspection and any non-destructive testing.


03

Industrial coatings

Garendon sets the coating requirement around the service environment and project specification. The manufacturing package covers surface preparation, application and inspection as one controlled system, including ISO 12944 C5 where required.

The project file records the coating system and any specified dry-film thickness or adhesion checks.

Project & quality management

Garendon manages the project from quotation through handover and remains the client's point of contact. We coordinate programme, material procurement, document control, technical changes and progress reporting.

Production progress and manufacturing records feed directly into the project file. Garendon assembles material certificates, welding records, NDT reports and coating records into the controlled handover pack.

For multi-unit programmes, Garendon aligns the build sequence, inspection hold points, production and shipping windows to the agreed programme.

Project standards and controls

Requirements agreed before manufacture.

BSI has certified Garendon Engineering to ISO 9001. We set the standards, qualifications, inspections and document requirements at quotation, and the manufacturing team works to the approved package and production route required for that scope. We can supply the certification evidence and project-specific qualification route during prequalification.

Standards and production controls available according to project requirements
EN 1090Execution of steel structures

Garendon agrees the execution requirements and class with the client. We confirm the production and certification route for the package before order.

BS EN ISO 15614-1Welding procedure qualification

Welding procedures qualified by test to the standard, to the level required by the project.

EN ISO 9606Welder qualification

Welding carried out by coded welders to the relevant qualification.

BS EN ISO 14731Welding coordination

Welding coordination provided by appropriately qualified personnel to the agreed project scope.

EN ISO 17637Visual testing of welds

Visual inspection of welds as standard practice.

BS EN ISO 17638Magnetic particle testing

Surface and near-surface flaw detection on ferromagnetic welds, carried out to the project requirement.

BS EN ISO 17639Macroscopic examination

Macro examination of weld sections to confirm profile, fusion and the absence of defects.

NDTFurther non-destructive testing

Ultrasonic, penetrant and other NDT methods carried out to the project requirement, with records kept on file.

BS EN ISO 5817Weld acceptance levels

Welds assessed against the quality level set by the project, typically Category C.

ISO 12944Protective paint systems

Garendon agrees the corrosivity class and coating requirement; the manufacturing package controls application and inspection.

ISO 9001Quality management system certified by BSI

BSI has certified Garendon Engineering to ISO 9001.
