Working in a factory which has a spec of conduit. Up to 50mm conduits all over the place with very little forms of other containment.

No idea why, but a nice steady job for the outfit doing it all.

Is that in a cereal factory, spent a few years installing 2 inch tube. Use hydraulic bender and pipe threader with conduit dies. Had to measure the piston length to keep all the bends the same.
You can get 70 X 1.5 singles down 1 tube

It might well be! Some of your handiwork maybe.

Near Trafford Dave?
 
Very swish. My boss and I were in a similar place last week, but they had traywork above the ceiling with individual conduit drops for machines.
 
You would think there would be a much easier alternative that all that pipe work, I wonder why it wasn't done with tray or something.

Yes there is always an easier alternative, but that doesn't make it better or even suitable.

I'm sure someone had a very good reason for spending goodness only knows how long doing that pipework when they could have done it in trunking in maybe a quarter of the time.
Maybe it needs the impact resistance or good screening of each bunch of cables that conduit provides?
