Rotec specialises in hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical mechanical components and systems for the marine sector and it will now base a service centre at the facility, which has three large graving docks and deep-water berthing.

Rotec’s new service centre will be dedicated to electro-mechanical repairs and servicing as well as supplying hose assemblies and hydraulic maintenance.

The new workshop can offer clients services including breakdown fault diagnostics, electrical installation, AC and DC motor repairs, pump, gearbox, generator and alternator repairs, laser alignment, dynamic balancing and hose assemblies, Rotec says.

“We are delighted to announce our new collaboration with A&P in Cornwall,” said Rotec managing director Paul Prouse. “Already a valued customer, we were keen to respond to their needs and to all those in the surrounding Cornish area.

“By adding a new electrical mechanical services workshop and hydraulics service centre to our company’s portfolio we will be strengthening the breadth of support we are able to provide to the marine industry and provide customer service to our clients, and A&P’s customers in turn.”

A&P has three facilities, two in the northeast of England and the Cornish one, in Falmouth, which boasts one of the world’s deepest harbours.

It carries out repairs in the commercial marine, oil and gas, offshore renewables, nuclear, defence and fabrication sectors, as well as marine construction and port operations.
