HTL opens centre of excellence
Bolting equipment manufacturer HTL Group has opened a new tensioner centre of excellence in Cannock,
HTL Group design and manufactures high quality, 100 per cent British made controlled bolting equipment.
The new centre in Watling Court, Orbital Plaza, will be the heart of HTL’s tensioning equipment innovation.
Based there is newly-appointed research and develoment manager Joe Vernam alongside global sales director Phil Jarvis.
Mr Jarvis said: “HTL Group’s announcement of our new Tensioner Centre of Excellence here in the Midlands, represents the dawn of a new and particularly exciting chapter of HTL’s continued success story.
"The Midlands is famous for bolt tensioning technology, with the origins of bolting manufacture in the region dating back to the industrial revolution. There is a thriving engineering heritage in this part of the UK, and HTL have recognised the need to establish a presence here to capitalise on this wealth of knowledge and opportunity.
"Together with existing operational facilities strategically located around the UK, establishing a presence here in the Midlands not only “closes the loop” in providing an unparalleled UK coverage, but also provides the expertise to support our ever growing global presence. It is indeed another exciting and important step towards our continued objective of being the partner of choice for controlled bolting solutions, whether that be from a standard product range, or engineered to order, special solutions.”
Mr Vernam said the new centre wss a great next step for the group.
" It is a hub where we will develop new technologies and expand our product offering to the tensioner market, opening up opportunities for the both OEM hire and sales, allowing us to demonstrate our commitment and engineering capabilities to customers.”
