As we pass the first anniversary of the UK lockdown, I would like to take this opportunity to once again thank all the staff and managers at Crestchic, both in the UK and around the world at our operations in France, Germany, USA, UAE, China & Singapore for their unstinting effort and commitment to each other and our customers. It’s not been easy that’s for sure and there have been many challenges and no doubt more to come, but I can say with absolute honesty that the positive can-do attitude of our people has been extremely rewarding and a pleasure to see.

Our customers too have experienced ever changing demands and tried their best to provide us with as much notice of contract changes and mobilisation dates; for this we are very thankful.

Crestchic staff have been supporting critical power applications round the world, providing loadbanks for the most demanding applications with often very little local amenities or facilities to support them. Whether we are testing gensets for power utilities, vital government operations, food supply distribution or hyperscale data centres, our people have excelled. I’d also like to thank our suppliers large and small who have been battling against difficult conditions to ensure that our manufacturing plant receives its supply of parts and materials, along with our transport contractors and customs agents who get the kit to site.

You all know who you are, it’ll get better and we will all meet again in the future.

Chris Caldwell
MD, Crestchic Loadbanks
