Galway City Cathedral Bridge
Working closely with Thompson’s Project Management, SWR fabricated and supplied a multitude of 6mm 1 x19 S/Steel wire rope assemblies complete with swage studs and rigging screws. With this addition, Galway City Centre now offers a safer and more secure route for travellers.
Serenco UK
As a supplier to the automotive industry, Serenco UK also provide safety applications – such as those for car recovery. These applications require a specialised wire rope assembly to work effectively.
Cirque Du Soleil
Representatives of Cirque du Soleil contacted SWR, as they required secondary safety systems for use during production of their most recent shows in Barcelona. The solution had to be light, easy to use and compact enough to store away at the end of a night’s work.
Hallowe’en – Vintage Fife Cutter
Standing rigging is comprised of wire and fixings which support the mast on a sailing vessel for the purpose of reinforcing its spars against the wind. Inigo needed wire rope in a variety of lengths plus other fixings in order for the installation to go as planned.
C-Capture
C-Capture worked on a project which required spelter sockets attached to the end of galvanized wire rope. Here at SWR, we provide a range of services to go with supplying high-quality fittings and services. This includes spelter socketing which can be a tricky process and requires experienced and trained production workers to perform.
SHADEmakers
SHADEmakers got in contact with SWR as they needed wire rope for a range of parasols that were being installed on a luxury yacht. Of course, due to the high standard of their products they expected the very best components.
Guthrie Douglas
SWR were trusted with creating a new stainless steel fitting as part of a significant upgrade to their TESS 100 and 400 blind systems. Previous versions let in too much light at the hem bar end of the blind so a stainless steel part was needed for greater fabric coverage and to reduce the light gap.
Costco
Our close relationship with Costco’s Watford store over the years has now resulted in SWR becoming the sole supplier of 1.5mm wire ropes and ferrules for all 28 branches in the UK. That means a lot of signage in Costco warehouses now use SWR products to keep them in place.
Volta Catch Ghana
Volta Catch contacted SWR for advice on how to create the most effective netting system for containing their fish in Volta Lake. This resulted in us working closely with the customer to create the best wire rope, ferrule and tooling solution.
The House Of Dancing Water
Because of the high-risk nature of the performances, there could also be no compromise on safety when it comes to selecting the right equipment. For that reason, all parts had a stainless steel construction for high-tensile strength and an eye-catching aesthetic which could visually blend in with the rest of the production.
