Christy Turner Ltd specialise in the manufacture of a range of flaking mills, hammer mills, roller mills and pulverisers for the food, animal feed, recycling and particle reduction industries from its base in Ipswich in Suffolk.
Recently, Christy Turner selected Ian Butcher from their existing management team to head up the entirely UK manufacturing operation and oversee worldwide operations.
Building Reliability
Mr Butcher's pedigree in precision engineering dates back to an apprenticeship with Ransome & Rapier before he joined Turner Chilled Rolls as Production Manager on a 15-year tenure before a 7-year stint with Manganese Bronze.
He then started his career with Christy Turner, initially becoming Parts & Service Manager, and more recently General Manager, which is an amalgamation of E,R & F Turner, Christy Norris, Miracle Mills and W G Gosling & Sons.
Building Relationships
Mr Butcher says, 'the history of our exclusively UK operation speaks for itself, but we are also committed to innovation and use our experience, expertise and engineering knowledge to produce a wide range of well-designed, robust machinery that usually outlives the career of its buyer'
He goes on to explain 'Christy Turner provide first class customer support both before and after purchase and offer customers a variety of services, including a dedicated spare parts team along with skilled and experienced service engineers, to ensure that its machines continue to provide decades of reliability without missing a day's work'
Mr Butcher's experience between foundry, workshop, customer site, boardroom and in-depth industry, and product knowledge make him a natural choice to lead a business that designs, delivers and supports reliable hammer mills and pulverisers.
Christy Turner supply their range of hammer mills, roller mills and flaking mills worldwide. One of their more local customers, Gary Mcilwaine, Head of Operations for Edme in Mistley, Manningtree has a long established association with Mr Butcher and Christy Turner:
'I would like to offer my congratulations to Ian on his recent appointment to Managing Director of Christy Turner Ltd. Having worked as a business with Christy Turner for number of years and having a good working relationship, it was on one of our more recent projects on the cooking side that Ian and his team delivered not only to a high standard but on time and within our budget. The support we have received since has been superb. I would like to wish Ian all the best in his role and thank both him and his team for their great work and support towards EDME over a number of years and I looking forward to continuing this relationship'
Tony Gosling, Non Executive Director of Christy Turner Ltd, on appointing Ian as MD: 'Ian's people focus means our long-standing workforce works as a unified team that helps us to deliver the reliability and service we are known for. Ian knows how to get the most out of people and his considerable experience with us speaks for itself. He keeps both our teams and our machines running smoothly'
The motivational and development side of Mr Butcher's personality is something he takes home with him at the end of the day: 35 years as a Scout leader means his skills are put to excellent purpose in the community as well as the industry.
