Damon de Laszlo, Harwin’s chairman, said: “We are committed to high quality manufacturing in the UK. That means embracing Industry 4.0 smart factory practices, investing in the latest equipment, designing products for automated assembly, and empowering and training our flexible workforce. We expect significant productivity gains to be made along with the increase in capacity.”
Part of Harwin’s company’s philosophy is to keep all key manufacturing processes - stamping, plating, moulding, turning, assembly and tool making – in house in order to ensure quality and support product innovation.
The company implements a strict policy of replacing its plant and equipment on a five-year cycle, and is continually developing automated processes to remain competitive and to keep quality at the highest levels. Harwin also runs an approved apprenticeship scheme in partnership with local educational establishment.
