Demolition specialist Brown & Mason set a world record on Thursday with the demolition of eight cooling towers at Cottam Power Station in Nottinghamshire.

The firm secured the Guinness World Records title for the most cooling towers demolished with controlled explosives simultaneously at the former coal-fired station.

 

Rikki Isgar, Explosive Demolition Manager at Brown & Mason said: “Controlled explosive demolition is all about precision, not power.

“Bringing down eight towers together meant modelling every movement, understanding every force, and executing flawlessly.  There’s no second chance in this kind of work, and this achievement is a testament to the skill and dedication of the whole team.”
