Bringing Our Businesses Together Under Hardtech

We’re pleased to share an important update as we continue to strengthen how we work across the Hardtech group.

As part of a wider move to bring our specialist businesses closer together, our engineering services teams now operate under a single unified identity: Hardtech Engineering Services.

This brings together:

• Hardtech Engineering Services (Northwest) – formerly Cronshaw Electrical
• Hardtech Engineering Services (North) – formerly PK Engineering

While the names are changing, the people, expertise, and service you know remain exactly the same. What’s improving is how we work together creating a more connected, collaborative organisation with greater shared capability across regions.

What this means for our customers

By bringing our teams closer together, we’re making it easier to deliver a more joined-up service. Customers will benefit from:

• Greater capacity across regions
• Wider technical expertise under one organisation
• Improved collaboration between teams and disciplines
• Access to enhanced HV capability through Hardtech HV
• A more consistent and streamlined experience

This change is about building on what already works well, while removing barriers between teams so we can respond faster, share knowledge more effectively, and deliver even stronger outcomes on complex projects.

A more connected Hardtech

Hardtech HV remains a key part of this integrated approach, supporting clients with specialist high voltage engineering expertise alongside our wider engineering services teams. By working more closely together across the business, we’re able to offer a broader and more cohesive service - without losing the local relationships and trusted delivery our customers value.

Continuing to deliver what you expect

Most importantly, nothing changes about the service you receive day to day. You’ll still be working with the same teams, the same contacts, and the same commitment to quality and safety.

What is changing is our ability to collaborate more effectively behind the scenes - bringing together knowledge, experience, and resources to better support your projects.

If you have any questions about this update, please don’t hesitate to contact your usual representative.
