PRODUCTION TEAM
Northern Ireland
At the heart of our operations is a skilled and dedicated production team. We are proud to say that every machine we create is designed and produced right here at our facility in Co. Down, Northern Ireland.
We have staff working in design and development, primary production, welding and assembly. We operate state-of-the-art machinery, including 12kW flatbed and tube lasers, along with laser welding and CNC benders, to increase the efficiency and quality of our production processes.
By overseeing every stage of production internally, we maintain full control over quality, ensuring that each machine produced meets the highest standards. This in-house approach also enables us to remain agile, fostering innovation and rapid development. Design adjustments can be tested and implemented in real time, allowing us to stay ahead of industry trends and we are also able to tailor machines to meet specific customer needs if required.
Whether it’s a custom design or a standard model, our team’s attention to detail and hands-on approach ensures reliability and performance that our customers can count on.
