Providing solutions to our processing industry customers

Industry knowledge & market expertise is key to our success.

From defence since the 1930s, to renewables in the past decade, we look at where our skills and knowledge are most likely to be of value, and we focus on working with customers in those areas.

Materials, processes and standards have diverged in recent years as industries become more specialist and have greater environmental and mechanical demands. There are parallels between some sectors as well as some cross-over, but with such broad-ranging demands within each specialist arena, it is increasingly difficult to be a master of all. Which is why we made tough choices.

We do have customers in just about every field, but our specialist knowledge and focus lies in those industries listed below; our materials, processes and expertise have been specifically developed to help our customers in those areas so that we can provide critical support in product and materials development and testing.

Of course you are an expert in your own field; we can’t expect you to be an expert in ours, too.
