The key benefit of working with John is the advantage of having access to his amazing knowledge on the processes and technologies he gathered during his career.

He is able to support you for process troubleshooting, pre-engineering studies, detailed engineering design ( such process P&IDs, hydraulic calculation, functional design specifications…), vendor selection, site construction check-outs, commissioning and start up, operator training… and may be more!

Not only is he highly capable as an expert on these subjects, but he always finds a way to make things accessible for a larger audience, using very comprehensive documents and clear explanations.

Nicolas ODEN, Project Leader

Research and Engineering, Kimberly-Clark Europe

John played a critical role in the technical design of the new equipment and brought a great deal of experience to the project on how to tailor the design for an existing Kimberly-Clark facility with a unique and complex tissue manufacturing process.

Although this was contracted by a “turnkey” project, without John’s support the vender’s proposed designs would not have worked.

Tony Darnell, Consumer Europe Engineering Manager

I worked with John McKinnon for over a year on a particularly challenging capital project and throughout that time John demonstrated an exceptionally positive and focused skill set and attitude.

John’s water and waste water expertise was paramount to identifying and addressing engineering and process issues, working with a problematic joint venture supplier and the ‘hands on’ provision of communication and training for the client’s employees.

There is no doubt that the project benefited immensely from John’s involvement and the resulting operational efficiencies and effectiveness of the plant were largely achieved by his determination and drive.
