THE SOLUTION

One of the greatest challenges companies face when in need of an interim equipment solution is in finding a rental vendor that can accommodate the need in a timely manner. This is particularly important in manufacturing, where a downed piece of equipment can lead to costly lost production time, which is exactly what one Texas-based manufacturing company was facing when they reached out to HOLT Industrial Rentals for a compressed air solution.

Prior to reaching out to HOLT Industrial Rentals, the manufacturing company had placed an equipment order with a well-known rental company; however, the delivery window was too long, and the equipment wouldn’t arrive in time to meet their urgent need. Upon receiving the call from the customer, the HOLT Industrial Rentals team asked some key questions to assess the customer situation and quickly determined that the other rental company was sending them the wrong equipment for the job.   HOLT Industrial Rentals promptly sent an expert technician to visit the manufacturing plant and determined that they needed a1550 oil-free air compressor. 

Thanks to their rapid response time and thorough assessment process the HOLT Industrial Rentals team was able to provide the customer with the proper air compressor, quickly and efficiently, reducing lost production time.

THE SOLUTION

After experiencing difficulties finding a rental company that could deliver to their job sites, a premier provider of asset integrity testing and certification of United States pipelines reached out to HOLT Industrial Rentals for a solution. Services offered by the customer include everything needed for safe and successful gas and oil projects, such as hydrostatic pressure testing, pneumatic pressure testing, pigging, on and offline chemical cleaning and flaring, among other services. With pipeline projects spanning hundreds of miles, often in remote locations with difficult terrain, they needed a reliable partner for temporary rental equipment solutions.

Without delay, HOLT Industrial Rentals sent out an expert technician to walk the site and determine what equipment would be needed. Following the assessment, a complete rental equipment package was assembled, including a Sullair 1600H air compressor, fuel tank, and a desiccant dryer, all delivered on a transportation trailer that the client could move up and down the length of the pipeline for ease of mobility through rough terrain. Seven of these rental equipment packages were delivered by the HOLT Industrial Rentals team across various locations in the pipeline. Having found a reliable rental partner for their pipeline projects, the client continues to call HOLT Industrial Rentals for all of their rental equipment needs.

THE SOLUTION

Our client is a pharmaceutical company that creates innovative medicines, which greatly benefit patients, healthcare systems and societies globally.  Due to the critical nature of their products, the manufacturing plant cannot lose power. During their Coppell, TX, expansion project, the Engineering Manager decided a rental power generator was necessary.  Renting equipment allowed them time to review the purchasing options and unit size needed for a permanent stationary generator unit. 

However, the initial power unit they rented from a well-known rental company proved to be unreliable and dangerous to the facility’s internal air quality and production.  The unit created black smoke during each test run, which traveled through the HVAC system of the main building, causing alarms to go off after detecting gas, resulting in unnecessary downtime.

After many failures with the competitor’s generator, their Engineering Manager reached out to HOLT Industrial Rentals for a more reliable and stable solution. The HOLT Industrial Rentals service technicians visited the site and put together a recommended equipment design plan.  The site assessment allowed the team to determine the necessary power, cables, and available space for a custom plan suitable for their needs. The HOLT Industrial Rentals experts then proposed the best course of action, while also taking into consideration safety and optimization of power without any unnecessary risks.

HOLT Industrial Rentals recommended a 1500 kw unit as an interim solution. Keeping the expansion in mind while looking to maximize power, the HOLT Industrial Rentals technicians recommended setting up the generator in a different location than the previous generator.  

Upon delivery of the unit, HOLT Industrial Rentals technicians installed the equipment and ran tests to make sure everything was in proper working order and fit the needs of the client.

The client’s team was very pleased with the unit’s performance and reliability.  They will be renting this power generator for the next 6-12 months and will be using HOLT Industrial Rentals for any future projects.

THE SOLUTION

A Texas based construction company reached out to HOLT Industrial Rentals for a temporary power solution to support their work at the Grindstone Plant, located outside of Fort Worth, TX. They needed to keep the Grindstone project moving while also abiding by EPA regulations, which would require several Tier 4 generators.

With a wide range of Tier 4 generators, from 30kW-2000kW, as well as the option of an onsite assessment, HOLT Industrial Rentals proved to be the best solution for their dilemma. Following the assessment of the client’s power challenge, the HOLT Industrial Rentals service technician recommended new Tier 4 XQ2250 and Tier 4i 800kw units, as well as 500kw units to keep the Grindstone Plant fully operational.

HOLT Industrial Rentals implemented an EPA compliant solution optimizing capital expenditures. Taking advantage of HOLT Industrial Rentals’ option for long-term rentals, the Grindstone Plant has multiple Tier 4 generators, ranging in output capacity from 200kw – 2000kw. The solution will remain in place for one year to ensure their project is compliant until a more permanent solution is implemented.
