The facility offers a clean, secure manufacturing environment with biometric controlled restricted access. The fully sealed unit, which also includes office space and a bonded store, expands the business capability to move into the nuclear decommissioning and new power generation plant markets, with a view to increasing market share within the petrochemical sector.
The investment in the new facility, formerly used as an outside storage area, is expected to increase turnover by up to 30% over the next 12-18 months.
Technical director Arran Nash said: "Our new workshop is an important step in advancing our capability in the thriving nuclear sector. European Heathyards have been pre-qualified by Achilles UVDB (EDF Nuclear) and we are also currently engaged on the fit for nuclear programme.
"This will expand European Heathyards capabilities to deliver large scale contracts for key players in the nuclear and petrochemical industry.”
