We would like to wish all of our customers a happy and prosperous 2015.
Andy joined our sales and customer service department last year and has been an excellent addition to our team. His knowledge and experience of engineering and manufacturing principles will improve the service that we can offer to our customers.
During 2015, we will be increasing our core manufacturing range thanks to the arrival of new machinery and, to accommodate this, we will be expanding our factory. A large proportion of this improvement will focus on production in the larger wire diameters up to 20mm. Further details to follow.

John Binns would like to thank everyone who came to see us and made it a great event.
