Mechanical Installation

Process pipework being installed at an industrial facility by TFG Group technicians

Expert Installation, From Planning to Commissioning

TFG Group provides end-to-end mechanical installation services for process pipework, equipment, and structural steel across a wide range of industries. Our installation teams work in beverage, brewing, dairy, food, industrial, pharmaceutical, and water sectors — each with its own unique standards, hygiene requirements, and operational constraints that our experienced crews understand thoroughly.

We take a turnkey approach to every installation project. From initial contract and project management through to complex pipe spooling, on-site welding, hydrostatic testing, internal passivation, and final commissioning, we manage the entire process under one roof. This integrated model eliminates the coordination challenges that arise when multiple subcontractors are involved, resulting in faster delivery, fewer defects, and clearer accountability.

Our installation capabilities include access platform construction, orbital welding for high-purity systems, pressure vessel installation, and specialised stainless steel work for hygienic environments. Every project is delivered with full weld traceability documentation, material certificates, and inspection records to satisfy even the most stringent audit requirements.

Installation Services

Our installation offering covers every phase of your project, from early-stage planning through to handover and commissioning.

Contract & Project Management

Dedicated project managers oversee every installation from initial scoping and scheduling through to completion and handover. We develop detailed project execution plans, manage procurement and logistics, coordinate with client teams and other trades, and maintain rigorous cost and schedule control. Our project management approach has been refined over three decades to minimise disruption to your ongoing operations while keeping work on track and on budget.

Pipe & Tube Installation

We install process pipework and tubing systems in carbon steel, stainless steel, and exotic alloys for applications ranging from high-purity pharmaceutical transfer lines to heavy-duty industrial process piping. Our teams are experienced in complex pipe spooling from isometric drawings, orbital welding for sanitary tube systems, and hydrostatic pressure testing to verify system integrity before commissioning. All work is documented with full weld maps and material traceability.

Mechanical & Equipment Installation

From pumps, heat exchangers, and mixing vessels through to complete production lines, our mechanical installation crews handle equipment of all sizes and complexity levels. We manage rigging, positioning, alignment, connection to services, and integration with existing plant systems. Access platforms and structural supports are fabricated and installed as required to ensure safe and efficient operation of all equipment.

Specialised Stainless Steel Installation

Our ASSDA Emerald-accredited teams specialise in stainless steel installations for industries where hygiene, corrosion resistance, and surface finish are critical. This includes dairy processing plants, brewery expansions, pharmaceutical clean rooms, and water treatment facilities. We perform internal passivation, electropolishing coordination, and surface finish verification to ensure installations meet the required hygienic standards and deliver long service life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What industries do you install pipework for?
We install process pipework across the beverage, brewing, dairy, food, industrial, pharmaceutical, and water industries. Our crews understand the specific codes, hygiene standards, and operational requirements unique to each sector.
Do you provide turnkey installation services?
Yes. We manage the full project lifecycle — from initial scoping and design coordination through fabrication, installation, testing, passivation, and commissioning — so you have a single point of accountability throughout.
How do you ensure weld quality on site?
All site welds are performed by coded welders using qualified procedures. We provide full weld traceability including welder ID, consumable batch numbers, visual inspection records, and any required non-destructive testing reports.
