ERG Hygrade Industrial Plastics is a long-established UK manufacturer specialising in the fabrication of corrosion-resistant GRP and thermoplastic equipment for demanding industrial environments.

With more than 50 years of experience, ERG Hygrade has built a reputation for high-integrity manufacture, supplying plastic process equipment to global blue-chip manufacturers, UK utilities, and specialist industrial operators working in aggressive chemical and environmental conditions.

A Fabrication-Led Specialist

ERG Hygrade’s core expertise is the manufacture of engineered plastic and GRP equipment, including:

Process tanks and chemical storage vessels
Scrubber vessels and associated ductwork
Reactor vessels and specialist fabrications
Refurbishment, modification and re-use of existing GRP assets

All equipment is fabricated to recognised British and European standards, including BS EN 13121-3, with materials and laminate systems selected to suit the defined chemical, thermal and mechanical duty.

While originally focused on fabrication, ERG Hygrade has developed in-house engineering and project delivery capability to support coordinated equipment packages — without compromising its manufacturing-first approach.

Part of the ERG Group

In April 2025, Hygrade became part of ERG Air Pollution Control Ltd., bringing together two complementary capabilities within the ERG Group.

As ERG Hygrade, we continue to operate as a dedicated manufacturing and fabrication specialist, supporting both ERG Air Pollution Control projects and external clients requiring high-quality plastic equipment for integration into wider process and treatment systems.

This structure provides clients with continuity, manufacturing depth and access to broader group expertise, while maintaining a clear separation between equipment fabrication and system design or performance responsibility.

Manufacturing Quality and Assurance

ERG Hygrade operates dedicated in-house facilities for weld testing, laminate sample validation and quality inspection. All welders and laminators are regularly assessed and certified under controlled quality procedures.

The business is ISO 9001 certified and Achilles UVDB registered, with fabrication processes focused on consistency, traceability, and long-term equipment reliability.

Every project is approached with a manufacturing-first mindset: build quality, material integrity, and fitness for duty.

What We Do — and How We Support Clients

ERG Hygrade supplies fabricated plastic equipment for use in gas handling, chemical storage and effluent-related applications across a wide range of industrial sectors.

Where complete treatment systems or performance-led solutions are required, these are delivered by ERG Air Pollution Control Ltd., with ERG Hygrade providing the manufactured equipment that underpins those systems.
