Wärtsilä Corporation, Trade press release 4 December 2024 at 11:00 UTC+2
  • Wärtsilä Water & Waste strengthens market position as sole Fornovo Gas service partner in UK & Ireland.

Wärtsilä Water & Waste has strengthened its strategic partnership with Fornovo Gas SpA, becoming Fornovo’s authorised Service Partner for the United Kingdom and Ireland. This enhanced collaboration empowers Wärtsilä to provide comprehensive support services, including genuine spare parts supply, commissioning, and specialised maintenance for Fornovo Gas compressors throughout the region.

As the UK and Ireland service partner for Fornovo Gas, Wärtsilä Water & Waste supports their world-leading compression technology, which has set industry standards for over 50 years.

The partnership encompasses Fornovo Gas's comprehensive range of bio-gas, bio-methane and compressed natural gas (CNG) reciprocating compressor systems, including dispenser systems – equipment that is vital for the re-fuelling and operation of gas-fuelled vehicles used across the road haulage, public transportation, manufacturing, agricultural and personal vehicle transport sectors, supporting the transition to cleaner fuel alternatives.

The partnership is also supported by Wärtsilä Water and Waste's team of five factory-trained engineers, who have recently completed additional intensive OEM training at Fornovo's headquarters in Italy. Wärtsilä Water and Waste works closely with Fornovo Gas to ensure their commitment to innovation and continuous technological advancement is matched by exceptional service delivery.

This enhanced partnership with Fornovo Gas marks a significant milestone in our commitment to serving the alternative fuel sector across the UK and Ireland,” says Cathy Stephenson, Managing Director, Wärtsilä Water & Waste.

“By investing in our engineering capabilities and securing exclusive service partner status, we are ensuring our customers have access to the highest quality support for their critical gas compression systems. Our growing team of factory-trained engineers, combined with guaranteed access to genuine spare parts, positions us to deliver exceptional service that maximises equipment reliability and performance.”

Since 2022, Fornovo Gas has been a Benefit Corporation, a choice that commits the company to pursue ambitious environmental, social and governance sustainability goals and one that echoes Wärtsilä Water & Waste’s core values. Wärtsilä Water & Waste’s solutions are designed to help the shipping industry to minimise greenhouse gas emissions and meet global sustainability targets.
