Minister for Manufacturing Meeting

We were pleased to welcome Sir John Whittingdale to our facility for a behind-the-scenes tour and a valuable discussion on the current state of our industry, what’s really hurting our SME businesses and the need for a dedicated Minister for Manufacturing.

Sir John enjoyed a very inquisitive look around our factory, seeing for himself the machinery and equipment investments we’ve made, and even inspecting some of the components recently manufactured which are heading to key industries such as Mining, Aerospace, and Oil & Gas.

We (on behalf of SME precision engineering businesses) explained the processes components go through including cleaning and degreasing and the efforts we all strictly adhere to, ensuring toxins are disposed of, recycled and removed from the atmosphere.

By seeing this for himself, we are sure this visit provided Sir John with valuable insight.
