Chippenham specialist manufacturer Fascia Graphics is expecting to increase its turnover by 10% to £3.75m this year as a result of recent investment in market-leading technology.
The firm has doubled revenue over the past decade and continues to lead the market for the production of graphic overlays and membrane keypads.
It has bought a state-of-the-art Sakurai MS80-SD servo-driven cylinder press – the only one operating in the UK. As a result, Fascia has won 100 new customers and now supplies more than 800 domestically and globally. It has also reduced its carbon footprint by over 25 per cent.
Managing director Paul Bennett said: “Our investments this year have certainly seen us steal a march on our competitors. The new line has increased our production capabilities and ensured that we can continue to supply product at a competitive price.
“The proportion of international work is also increasing significantly with strong demand from customers in Canada, Germany and the US. We’ve also been shortlisted for The Financial Mail Made in Britain Award – which is testimony to our continued success.”
It has also invested in the latest Pick and Place technology – the most effective surface mount placement machine currently on the market, which has increased production capability and is enabling Fascia to continue to supply products at competitive prices.
