Surface Transforms factory expansion continues

Following the move to the new factory in Knowsley, Liverpool, Surface Transforms continues its expansion programme to support the demand from the automotive manufacturers, with the recent delivery of a new furnace. This significant investment will enable a more than 3-fold increase in the capacity of the new plant, and is due to come on-line in October after a period of commissioning and trials.

The furnace, standing approximately 6.0m high, and with a total footprint of nearly 50 sqm, marks the beginning of the development of ‘Series Production Cell 1’ to support the automotive OEM customers, and will be followed shortly by deliveries of further capital equipment.
