- A
- Derbyshire company which helped put Jaguar back on top of world sportscar
- racing is successfully exploiting new markets.
-
-
- Advanced Structural Technology Ltd. (ASTEC), which has been a member of the TWR
- Group since shortly after its formation in 1989, began by producing components
- for the Jaguar XJR-11 Sports prototype racing car, and is perhaps best known
- for producing the Jaguar Sport XJR-15 carbon fibre supercar.
-
-
- But the firm's expertise in advanced structural engineering has also won it
- business in the aerospace and defence industries, in medical equipment and
- metrology, and in tooling, high speed machinery and robotics.
-
-
- The company, which is based at Draycott in Derbyshire, specialises in the use
- of advanced composite materials. Components manufactured by the firm have
- included shells for aircrew helmets, wind tunnel blades and measuring machine
- parts, as well as prototype vehicle panels.
-
-
- Recent accreditation to BS5750 further confirmed the high standards set by a
- company involved in a highly specialised field of structural engineering.
-
-
-
-
-
-
- "Our present and future customers expect
- ASTEC to maintain good standards in quality assurance, and this is a
- demonstration to them of the importance we place on this aspect of our
- operation," said managing director Mark Knowles.
-
-
- An aggressive sales policy has enabled the company to establish markets
- throughout the United Kingdom, and plans have been drawn up for expansion into
- Europe.
-
-
- In just two years, ASTEC has grown from a fledgling firm to a highly respected
- company employing 100 people and generating annual turnover of more than £4
- million.
