Gilberts of Blackpool has unveiled a new air movement test centre, officially opened by the new Chief Executive of the Federation of Environmental Trade Associations Russell Beattie. Built at its new Stanley House manufacturing plant the centre replaces an older decommissioned facility and so is now, Gilberts believes, one of the best air distribution test laboratories in the country and the only one of its kind, in house, amongst natural ventilation manufacturers. The 400m3 centre enables thorough, accurate testing of air distribution grilles, diffusers and natural ventilation terminals to establish their full aerodynamic performance including throw, temperature, pressure and acoustic data. Alongside the two-storey test room, a Research & Development suite is fully equipped with data logging to precisely monitor and record tests, whilst the viewing gallery enables clients to see the test ??live??. The new test centre compliments Gilberts of Blackpool??s 85000ft2 manufacturing facility. The company is unique in manufacturing every component in house- even as far as designing and engineering its own tools and dies in our own tool making facility.
