BEROA BIERRUM

In the mid 1920's a group of talented engineers arrived in the United Kingdom from Denmark bringing to the UK a wealth of experience in reinforced concrete. Included were such names as Arup, Kier, Christiani and Neilson. Among them was Hans Bierrum who founded the company, which took his name. 90 years later the company has evolved into its present form and still has strong contacts with the family. The company is dedicated to the design and construction of chimneys, cooling towers, silos and other tall concrete structures. Within this market area, Bierrum has achieved an international reputation for innovation and quality, concentrating on the design and construction of technically complex structures. Difficult access and height problems are solved by the extensive use of both slipforming and hydraulic climbing access systems developed and patented by Bierrum.Bierrum's first cooling tower was built in 1930 and since then they have been involved in the design and construction of the majority of chimneys and cooling towers built in the UK. In addition Bierrum have maintained a wide range of design and construction activities overseas.In April 2013 a rationalisation of the business took place and Bierrum International Ltd became Beroa Bierrum – a branch of Beroa Deutschland GmbH.Based at our head office in Eversholt in Bedfordshire we are currently involved in projects worldwide as well as the UK.Incorporated in 1997, Beroa provides its expertise as supplier to the power industry in more than twenty countries across the globe.
