Behind the scenes at AB: "Your USP is that you are human".👥

Not quite what we expected to hear in a session on optimising AI use 📡 in our operations and products.. but reassuring that we are all still needed.

One thing is clear when this many engineers get together in one room; there is always more than one way to design a solution. And even more opinions. 💡💡💡

Although the drying and process engineering experience and critical thinking in this room is unrivalled by any amount of AI, we can still benefit from the use of it; and importantly so will our customers. 🤝

It's coming... 🌧️
Extreme Rain? Sun? 🔆What is El Niño?
It will impact all of us, worldwide - either directly, or indirectly.
But how will it affect cultivation in 26, and harvest 27?

We've been reading up on what it means for our customers across the UK, and worldwide - 📖

"But where are your machines actually made?"🧐
. Our production facility may have changed beyond recognition, but we still benefit from our highly skilled and athletic welders - and the answer is still the same as in 1952 - on the land of our family farm.

Wiltshire, UK.🌍

Visitors always welcome.

Come with us as we follow a DF25000 through our paint shop, from preparation and finishing right through to final delivery.

This particular drier is heading to our dealers in Kazakhstan, where it will soon be ready to support customers with reliable grain drying performance.

Every machine that leaves our factory reflects the quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that goes into every stage of production.

Last week at Alvan Blanch, we said a fond farewell to our System Design Engineer in the project engineering department, Paul, who has decided to put down his pencil (mouse) after more than 12 years with the business and focus on his own projects.

Over the past 12 years, Paul has made a tremendous contribution to Alvan Blanch. His dedication, expertise, and commitment have left a lasting mark on the projects he has worked on, including feed mills, silo plants, drying systems and cassava, rice and maize milling systems, in operation across the Middle East, UK, Africa and beyond.

We'd like to thank Paul for everything he has done and wish him every success in his next adventure.

Good luck, Paul – you'll always be part of the Alvan Blanch family! 👏
