Newbow Aerospace starts 2019 with expansion

Newbow Aerospace – a design, manufacturer and supplier of ground support equipment (GSE) to the aviation industry – has announced significant expansion of their manufacturing and production facility to meet customer demand.

The new facility, which neighbours their headquarters in central UK, will see the company’s production capacity double in size, increase its workforce by 30 per cent and introduce significant new product development for their leading-edge manufacturing, fabrication and assembly of their ground support equipment.

Work has already commenced on Newbow’s extended facility and is due to be complete by Spring 2019. The new facility will accommodate a new, larger oxygen clean assembly room, conforming to applicable standards and allowing increased assembly, testing and throughput of gaseous charging systems and components.

In addition, a new, larger calibration laboratory will be introduced meeting the latest standards for the calibration, re-calibration and testing of ground support measurement equipment.

Ron Wilson, Managing Director for Newbow Aerospace said: “We are delighted to announce this significant expansion that will underpin the company’s desire and hunger to be the preferred supplier in innovated and industry leading ground support equipment and continue the success of our 50 year history.

“Supplied worldwide, supported locally is our ethos in delivering what our customers want. This expansion will secure future growth of the business, contribute to local employment and allow us to better support our global customer portfolio by adding new product lines and offering more efficient lead-times.”
