65 Years of Supporting the Healthcare Sector
Mechanical installations for NHS Trusts and private healthcare organisations: MRI and X-ray departments, community diagnostic centres, plant rooms, catering facilities and mental health units.

For over 65 years, Preou has been proud to deliver mechanical installations across the healthcare sector, working in partnership with both NHS Trusts and private healthcare organisations.
Our experience covers a wide variety of specialist and technically demanding healthcare environments, including MRI and X-ray departments, food halls and catering facilities, plant rooms, Community Diagnostic Centres (CDCs) and other critical clinical and operational areas.
Working within live healthcare environments requires careful planning, coordination and an understanding of the importance of maintaining essential services. Our teams have built up decades of experience delivering mechanical installations while working closely with clients, consultants, contractors and healthcare professionals.
From individual refurbishments and upgrades through to major healthcare developments, Preou continues to bring the same commitment to quality, reliability and professional delivery that has been at the heart of the business for more than six decades.
