                                     PART 1
                             REGISTRANT INFORMATION

                                   Enodis plc
                           (Full name of registrant)

           1 Farnham Road, Guildford, Surrey, GU2 4RG United Kingdom
                    (Address of principal executive office)


                                    PART II
                            RULE 12B-25 (b) AND (c)

     If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or
expense, and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the
following should be completed.  (Check appropriate box.)

[x]  (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form
could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;

[x]  (b) The subject annual report on Form 20-F will be filed on or before the
15th calendar day following the prescribed due date; and

[ ]  (c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c)
has been attached if applicable.



                                    PART III
                                   NARRATIVE

     State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 20-F could not be
filed within the prescribed time period:

     Subsequent to the end of the registrant's fiscal year, in late January
2000, the registrant relocated its executive offices from London, England to
Guildford, England.  After the move, the registrant also began negotiations to
refinance its primary credit facility.  Those negotiations were finalized in
March 2001.  The relocation and refinancing put significant strain on
management's time, which would have otherwise been used to prepare the
Form 20-F.

     For these reasons, the registrant has been delayed in completing its
financial statements and the other portions of the Form 20-F, and the Form 20-F
could not have been completed within the prescribed time period without
unreasonable effort and expense.


                                    PART IV
                               OTHER INFORMATION

     (1)  Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this
notification:

               David Hooper      (011) (44) 1483-549-080
               (Name)            (Telephone number)

     (2)  Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during the preceding 12 months or for such
shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been
filed?  If the answer is no, identify report(s).

                                                        [x] Yes  [  ] No

     (3)  Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations
from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

                                                        [  ] Yes  [x] No

                  (Name of registrant as specified in charter)
has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned
thereunto duly authorized.
