April has proven to be an incredibly successful month for SSC Laser, one of the UKs leading laser cutting companies, as they achieve a record performance. With a £700,000 turnover, SSC Laser has successfully proven its worth despite the harshness of the economic climate.
Much of SSC lasers exemplary performance has been attributed to the remarkable accomplishments of their recently established division in Aztec West, Bristol. The new site is already exceeding its targets and proving to have been a wise move by the company. Andy Evans, Sales Director, for SSC Laser commented: The Bristol site has evidently benefited greatly from the two employees that have headed up the division, Ben Cliss and Rob Keir. The division has offered a really impressive service to companies who buy our laser engineered components; including flat laser profiles, folded laser profiles and tube laser components. The new Bristol site is not alone in its strong performance though, as all of our divisions are doing very well with another particularly noteworthy performance from our Scotland based division.
With divisions already in Stafford, Derby, Sunderland, Slough, Motherwell and Bristol, SSC Laser have their sights firmly set on expanding into another manufacturing site within the next 6-7 months. Andy Evans added: We have plans for this facility to follow the same trajectory of growth as the previous facilities have, expanding from an initial 2-3 person sales office up to a 10 person production facility.
Since its establishment in 2000, the firm has grown substantially to be one of the largest sub contract laser profilingcompanies in the UK whilst maintaining its headquarters in Hixon, Staffordshire.
With an unquestionable confidence in UK manufacturing, SSC Laser, has endeavoured to consistently maintain a high standard of work and strong customer relations. Such sound principles have enabled the company to grow at a rapid rate, expanding from one site in 2007 to 6 by 2012.
As specialists in rapid deliveries of precision laser engineered components, in both flat and tube profiles, the firm also offers press-braking, laser scanning and in-house CAD service, using state-of-the-art technology.
It is companies like SSC Laser that are a true testament to the ability of UK manufacturing and engineering and with such rapid expansion are continuing to fly in the face of reports of economic gloom.
