Investment worth £1m made by fire systems manufacturer

Fire systems manufacturer, Advanced, has made a £1m investment in its corporate headquarters and manufacturing plant in North Tyneside, UK.

The investment, made by Advanced, includes manufacturing facility improvements, equipment and an office design project that has delivered state-of-the-art offices, communications technology and social facilities.

The investment follows a relocation from four separate sites in Cramlington, to one, 48,000 sq ft base in North Tyneside. The move is essential to satisfy increasing UK and international demand from customers for its life safety products.

Pete Browitt, managing director, said: “This investment represents a key milestone for Advanced.

“We are proud to manufacture all of our products in the North East where our new facility offers real competitive advantage across our manufacturing operations and our new facilities are some of the best I have ever seen.

“Our new site is an exceptional place to work and is already delivering significant benefits across departments.”
