Composite Integration Ltd. moves to new, expanded facility

 

 

Following company growth over recent years, Composite Integration Ltd. (Saltash, U.K.), a specialist in resin transfer molding (RTM) and resin infusion, moved to a new, larger facility site in Saltash on Aug. 23. The company plans to hold a grand opening later this year.

The new site is said to be 300% larger than the previous facility, which the company says will enable it to increase efficiency and continue growth, particularly in the aerospace market. The company plans to use the space to build larger machines that it has developed to fulfill growing demands for large-scale infusion for processing aerospace-grade materials.

The company will also now have a dedicated R&D workshop in the new facility, which will support its collaborative projects in the aerospace, automotive, marine, wind and tidal energy, sports, architectural, rail and defense sectors. A demonstration and training area has also been commissioned to enable in-house training to suit the individual client as well as the company’s own personnel. 

“Our new facility will give us the opportunity not only to expand our business overall but also to manage projects on a much larger scale,” says Stephen Leonard-Williams, company director. “Over the last few years, we have seen a growing demand for larger-scale manufacturing equipment, and we can now accommodate this type of work without compromising other activities. The building includes a dedicated R&D workshop in which we can undertake the highly complex and commercially sensitive project work meeting the increasing demanded by our customers. The quality of our workplace is hugely important to us; it is not only our home but also our ‘shop window.’ We have worked hard to provide a comfortable, clean and safe working environment that our entire team can all be proud of.”
