We are delighted to announce that Browne has been ranked 91st in the Top 100 Inclusive UK Employers Index 2024 by the National Centre for Diversity. This recognition celebrates our commitment to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace where everyone feels valued and respected.

We are thrilled to announce that Browne has been honored with the "Be Proud, Be Blue" award at the recent Thames Water annual supplier event. This esteemed recognition celebrates our ongoing commitment to excellence, collaboration, and innovation within the utilities sector.

The award ceremony, held on Tuesday, brought together some of the most influential names in the industry. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect, celebrate shared successes, and highlight the exceptional contributions of leading suppliers.

Barry Jones, Director of Operations at Browne, addressed the Future Water Association at their event in London earlier this month, sharing his expertise on quality assured water pipe installation. With over 25 years in leak detection and mains replacement, Barry joined a panel discussing “New Pipes Don’t Leak – Do They?” where he examined the ongoing risks of leakage in new infrastructure, driven by gaps in quality assurance, limited pressure testing, and the increasing role of Self Lay Providers (SLPs).

We are delighted to announce that Browne has achieved the Gold Award status in The 5% Club’s prestigious 2024-25 Employer Audit. This recognition highlights our commitment to creating meaningful pathways for individuals to develop their careers through apprenticeships, graduate programs, and other earn and learn initiatives.

Browne’s partnership with Southern Water (SW) has flourished since the company became the reservoir maintenance framework provider in 2019. Recognising Browne’s excellent performance, Southern Water awarded a four-year extension to the contract in 2023, cementing this relationship through to 2027.

We are proud to announce the successful and early completion of a critical infrastructure project in West London, undertaken in collaboration with Thames Water and five key partners. This project, located outside the strategically important West Brompton Station and spanning the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea as well as Hammersmith & Fulham Council, required meticulous planning and seamless coordination between various stakeholders.

In a further major collaboration, Browne, together with SGN, is actively working to reduce disruption during the replacement of a 200m DI pipe with a 250mm PE pipe in the London Borough of Bexley. Thanks to the evolving scope of the project and combined efforts with Thames Water, over 70 days of disruption are expected to be saved.

Browne recently hosted a site walk-through for Transport for London (TFL) along Upper Tooting Road to see the Surbiton Trunk Mains Replacement Project. The visit provided an opportunity for the TFL Director and team to witness the progress of this essential infrastructure project, which is being delivered on behalf of Thames Water in cooperation with TFL and Wandsworth Council.
