Project Overview
Carrying out a free energy audit and site survey to assess current compressed air usage.
This then led to exploring options around the compressor service maintenance renewal, before agreeing a plan to ensure peace of mind for Trident Foams Ltd.
What was needed?
Trident Foams Ltd had come to the end of their compressed air extended warranty service agreement. As compressed air is an integral part of their production it was a good time for them to assess their current set up. A free energy audit and site survey was needed to evaluate all aspects of their system to ensure it was working as effectively and efficiently as possible.
What we did
PPS carried out non-intrusive data logging on site to gain an accurate account of Trident Foam Ltd’s compressed air demand, pressure and cycle over a seven-day period. Coupled with a site survey this gave a complete overview of the system.
The review demonstrated that the machine was still sufficient based on their air requirements and was sized correctly for the site.
Knowing they were still operating an effective system, Trident Foams Ltd were keen to look at service plans that would give them cover similar to what they had experienced under their extended warranty agreement.
PPS presented the possible service options, looking at extending the current service plan, maintaining the warranty or possibility to go on a preventative maintenance ‘Air Protect’ plan.
Key Benefits
- Complete peace of mind – the extended cover means Trident Foams Ltd have one less thing to worry about
- Ease of budgeting – Fixed payments over the contract term make budgeting easier
- Reliability – On average, customers with a compressor service plan in place enjoy 3.5% more production uptime than those without one

‘’Trident Foams are a long-standing PPS customer. As we approached the renewal date of their service package, we had a number of discussions with them to discuss the options. After some review, it was decided to proceed with an extension of their current warranty package, to give them peace of mind and to fix their payments. We look forward to continuing to support them with reliable compressed air’’.
