staff in the coming months to support the business in delivering the new strategy.
The new leadership team is the driving force behind the growing business that offers in-house design, manufacturing and build of bespoke modular solutions for the energy

and busy 2024. The heritage of the business and the expertise of the team is impressive and I’m excited to harness the knowledge we have as we expand and grow.
“Both Doug, the wider team and I, have strong ambitions for the business that will utilise the range of our in-house design, manufacturing and fabrication capabilities.
“The opportunities in the energy sector including Hydrogen, BESS, Offshore Wind, and Carbon Capture are huge and we have provided a number of solutions for our clients to date, in this space.
