COVER STORY: Award-winning medical gas installation, maintenance, and innovation

SHJ Medical Gas Specialists, awarded the title of Healthcare Supplier of the Year at the 2021 Healthcare Estates IHEEM Awards, has been supplying the NHS and private sector with medical gas pipeline systems and services for over 50 years.

‘Renowned for leading the industry in AI-driven techniques of medical gas plant control’, its core business is offering a fully bespoke service, which includes drawings, design, installations, servicing, refurbishments, upgrades, PPM, and emergency plant hire. 

The company’s team of in-house estimating engineers, project managers, and CAD technicians, designs medical gas pipeline systems for medical refurbishments, upgrades, and new-builds, collaborating with architects and building contractors up and down the country. CAD drawings are created in both 2D and 3D, meaning that the resulting design work can easily be incorporated into Building Information Modelling systems.  

SHJ also works directly with NHS and private sector hospitals on plant installations, including pipework for new and upgrade projects, medical vacuum plant, medical air plant, manifolds, alarm systems, theatre equipment, and anaesthetic gas scavenging systems.

Highlighting the robustness of the business and service offering, managing director, Stafford Scopes, said: “Our medical gas installations are fully tested at each stage, and upon completion, are certified in accordance with the requirements of HTM 02-01, ISO 13485, and ISO 9001. All our engineers are directly employed by us and fully trained to Competent Person level, with some trained to Authorised Person and Quality Control level.

“2022 was a busy year for SHJ, with a number of highprofile installations in conjunction with industry-leading building contractors. The flow of new projects continues, with current installation projects including ITU upgrades, re-development of Acute Services blocks, and new ward builds.”
