CPL Partners With BDG Architects to Broaden Services in the Southeast

CPL, a full-service architectural and engineering design business servicing public and private-sector customers for more than 47 years, announced a partnership with Tampa-based architecture firm BDG Architects to expand its presence in Florida, Alabama, and Georgia. CPL will be able to offer national knowledge provided by strong local teams to meet the complex and diversified demands of our customers in the area by combining the skills and resources of both organizations.

CPL brings to their cooperation with BDG more than 30 years of healthcare knowledge and leadership. The business has produced over $500 billion in healthcare building projects in five states throughout the country, ranging from new construction of critical care bed towers and destination medical campuses to renovations of existing hospitals and outpatient centers.

CPL has produced game-changing projects for healthcare organizations such as Rochester Regional Health's new critical care tower, FirstHealth of the Carolinas' comprehensive cancer center, and Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist's new level I trauma urgent care and intensive care units.

BDG supplies prefabricated building parts and components to healthcare customers via its partnership with BLOX, a producer of modular hospitals and clinics. A modular model enables a speed-to-market approach with improved quality control due to the fact that the components are manufactured offsite and then supplied and fitted onsite swiftly.

SPX FLOW Launches Universal 2 ND Pump Series Designed Uniquely for Industrial Market

PR Newswire | January 29, 2024

SPX FLOW, has released the Universal® 2 ND Positive Displacement Pump (U2 ND) Series designed with industrial users in mind. The pumps offer the quality and durability the Waukesha Cherry-Burrell brand is known for while optimizing cost and suitability for the industrial market. The U2 ND series significantly expands the WCB pump range, aimed at enhancing reliability and performance across industrial applications while outperforming other pump styles, such as industrial lobe, gear or progressive cavity pumps.The design features improvements uniquely suited for industrial applications, including: Total cost of ownership: The pumps ensure a long running life, given their robust construction materials and designs tailored for each application. Because of its high volumetric efficiency, the pumps can be used to dose fluids, eliminating the need for an additional metering pump.  Efficiency: The U2 ND pump reduces slip, which occurs when fluids move backward from the liquid flow due to internal clearances. Lower slip means more efficiency, reducing the need for higher horsepower motors. Also, the series can process fluids over longer spans due to its high-pressure capability, which reduces the need for multiple pumps in these applications. Reliability: WCB is a proven and trusted global brand dating back to the 1880s. The pumps are made with durable, corrosive-resistant materials compatible with industrial environments. A robust design, equipped with industrial flanges or sanitary fittings, ensures manufacturers can choose the configuration to meet their needs.  Additionally, an extensive sales channel and domestic manufacturing footprint support this pump series, enabling quick deliveries on standardized parts across the entire Universal pump product line. The U2 ND series is complemented by the Universal Industrial 5000 series, which is tailored for users who require OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) seals for their industrial pumping operations. Julien Bassett, Pumps Global Product Manager: "Waukesha Cherry-Burrell has extensive experience offering pumps to customers built with their needs in mind. We wanted to expand our offerings to provide quality and durability of the SPX FLOW brand while catering to the unique needs of industrial manufacturers and their applications."
