EJOT has invested significantly in its manufacturing capacity and technical support in a project which has more than doubled the size of its UK design, manufacturing and logistical facility near Leeds.
The company has expanded its Sherburn-in-Elmet site to create a state-of-the-art facility tailored to the needs of the UK market, with class-leading support for customer innovation.
In addition to providing more than 4,500 sq m of new manufacturing space and a logistical control centre that will increase storage capacity by 40 per cent, the expansion also includes a state-of-the-art upgrade to the EJOT Applitec centre—already unique in the industry.
Unlike any testing and research and development facility available here in the UK, this ‘application technology’ facility will be three times the size of the existing centre, providing a resource for multi-dimensional fastener testing and new product development in conjunction with OEMs. The testing resources available here will include two new environmental testing laboratories where the long-term performance of EJOT products can be reliably assessed.
Robert Hardstaff , Managing Director at EJOT UK, said: “Our ethos of ‘converting customer problems into product solutions’, both reactively and often proactively to prevent problems evolving in the first place, requires us to have the right technical resources and quality procedures in place to meet whatever challenges our customers face. Our new facilities will enable us to do this in a way that not only continues this level of support, but also reaffirms our unique positioning to the industries we now serve.”
