Colin Jones celebrates over 40 years’ service at Ancorite

Back in the late 70s following an apprenticeship with British Steel, Colin Jones joined Ancorite as a refractory/acid brick layer. Today – four decades later – he remains a solid and trusted member of the team.

Over the years Colin has played an instrumental part in many of the major brick lining projects undertaken by Ancorite in South Wales, including the Dragon and Genesis major expansion projects at Dow Corning in Barry.

His skill set has been passed down the family line through to his son – and hopefully through to his Grandson. Whilst Colin now refrains from working full time, he still plays a pivotal role in the heavy industrial work that the team undertakes in the region.

At Ancorite Surface Protection, we marked his achievement with vouchers presented by Managing Director, Andy Cummings, near his home in Cwm, Ebbw Vale.

The team would like to once again thank Colin for his dedication and commitment to Ancorite over the past 40 years.
