Our Largs cremator installation is the highest in Scotland
Twelve months ago, on Wednesday 6th June 2018, a new multi-million-pound family run crematorium that included a state of the art cremator system, purpose designed and engineered by Matthews Environmental Solutions, opened for business. At the time we wrote how proud we were to be so closely involved in the groundbreaking venture. Now it has emerged that not only is this showpiece crematorium set within one of the most beautiful areas of Scotland, but has been confirmed that it is the highest located crematorium in the country.
The Clyde Coast & Garnock Valley Crematorium is located in the internationally recognised Clyde Muirsheil Regional Park and at 731 feet above sea level it sits substantially above any other crematorium in Scotland. Its nearest competitor for the highest cremator installation in Scotland is the West Lothian Crematorium, which stands at just 492 feet above sea level.
No contest.
Despite this new accolade, impressive though it may be, at Matthews our biggest source of pride is the exceptional bespoke technical specifications that we designed and engineered into the cremator installation itself.
The Matthews’ Novus cremator plant was designed to meet all the requirements of the new crematorium and included among its specifications was a bespoke wide chamber that is capable of accepting the largest of coffins.
This fully automated human cremation plant, overseen by a dedicated PLC-based control, supervisory and monitoring system, ensures that it maintains the most efficient level of performance together with complete compliance with all the very latest social and environmental regulations. These include strict emission management through advanced gas abatement technologies, low noise acoustics, plus the very latest thermal electrical and fuel energy reduction and saving operations.
So once again we are delighted to send our sincere congratulations to the Clyde Coast & Garnock Valley Crematorium on completion of the first year of their extremely successful venture bringing a much needed and valuable facility to the families within their region.
But now, there is a double cause for celebration – it is officially recorded as The Highest Located Crematorium in Scotland.
