The site is poised to become a net-zero plant
and will use modern technology to reduce energy waste and maximise the use of renewable energy. It is expected to be net-zero in Scope 1 and 2 emissions when it opens in early 2025. Scarborough is a long-established manufacturing
base for Schneider Electric which specialises in the manufacture of low-voltage switchgears. Kelly Becker, president at Schneider Electric, UK
& Ireland, Belgium & Netherlands, commented: “Sustainability is at the core of our purpose, culture and business. We’re proud to be investing in and
developing innovative solutions which will deliver immediate and lasting decarbonisation in the UK, while bolstering the creation of local, green jobs in Yorkshire. The region has long been part of our operational presence in the UK, and we’re excited to expand this as part of our commitment to investing in the UK’s green economy. The new facility in Scarborough represents a pillar of innovation in net-zero, and one which will be an industry benchmark for the transition to sustainable, energy efficient buildings.” Business and Trade secretary, Jonathan
Reynolds, added: “This huge investment from Schneider Electric will not only safeguard existing jobs but create 200 new ones. Increasing investment is amission at the heart of this government, and our modern Industrial Strategy will help us deliver long- term, stable growth that supports skilled jobs. Stephen Phipson, chief executive of Make UK,
With exciting plans to keep growing, the company has taken the decision to expand its presence in Bidford on Avon, Warwickshire, by taking over an additional three units next to its current base. These new units will provide 60% additional warehousing space; double the production & repack capacity; and allow for further enhancements of the specialist storage and stock management solutions it offers. With this new space, TECHSiL aims to develop and improve
the services it already provides – streamlining operations and accommodating increasing demand for its products and value-add services, with no disruption to existing customers. From kitting to bespoke packaging, repacking to full quality assurance traceability – TECHSiL is continually looking to improve and grow whilst delivering value responsibly. With focus on improved sustainability, it aims to keep delivering value to its customers, ensuring the business delivers positive impacts through the products and services it delivers to benefit both their society and environment.
said: “This is a marvellous example of how sustainable manufacturing can be achieved, creatingmany highly skilled jobs in the process. Green technologies are going to be the solution to many of the challenges that we face and Schneider should be applauded for pioneering this facility. It is an exemplar model for other manufacturers to follow when they build new facilities.”
The INEOS ENVIREZ resin’s chemical composition features 23%
bio-based glycol, compared to traditional crude oil-sourced hydrocarbon resins. As a result, the carbon equivalent emissions in the manufacture
of this resin are 2.89 CO2e kg including biogenic carbon, as opposed to fossil-based equivalent resin’s 3.68 CO2e kg*. Exel Composites’ customers will have the choice of switching to this resin
or keeping the original composition in the products that they purchase.
Available in a range of sizes and configurations, the Super-Precision Bearings range includes angular contact ball bearings, cylindrical roller bearings, double direction angular contact thrust ball bearings, axial-radial cylindrical roller bearings and angular contact thrust ball bearings for screw drives, as well as precision lock nuts and gauges. The bearings are engineered with tighter tolerances,
reducing vibration and noise levels, which results in more accurate and efficient machine operation.
