Seeing the green light
Precision Engineers Turnell and Odell (Stand D31) says the change to LED Lighting in its workshop and offices has not only brought financial savings that will show a great return, but the working environment is so much better. The mood of the team is great and the “feel good factor” cannot be ignored – not only is it easier to read drawings and measuring equipment but the brighter workshop is definitely a better place in which to work. A further green investment into on site vehicle charging is in the early stages – currently the company only operates 2 electrical vehicles but that is bound to increase and the new charging facilities are available FOC to employees and customers ---- and sales people are even allowed to use them if they don’t stay too long!
Second site
BSI AS9100 accredited CNC Leicester (Stand H4) has recently expanded to a second site in Sileby, Leicestershire, and has invested in vapour blasting, vibratory rumbling and chemical blacking to increase its competitiveness, allowing customers to benefit from increased efficiencies and technical support.
