\t\t\t\tDronfield-based precision engineering company pioneers sustainable, low-carbon manufacturing with substantial investment in a new, state-of-the-art facility.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Harrison Silverdale is proud to announce the construction of a new, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility at its flagship UK factory in Dronfield Derbyshire, marking a major milestone in the company\u2019s continued growth and commitment to sustainable, low-carbon manufacturing.<\/p>\n
Designed to significantly expand production capacity, the new facility will bring together advanced engineering capability, cutting-edge automation, and renewable energy generation under one roof. It represents a bold investment in the future of British manufacturing, strengthening Harrison Silverdale\u2019s ability to serve customers across the UK and international markets with speed, precision, and consistency.<\/p>\n
At the heart of the new operation will be next-generation production technology, including Star Micronics CNC sliding head lathes. These advanced machines will increase machining capacity, enhance precision, and further elevate the quality of the precision-engineered components produced by Harrison Silverdale.<\/p>\n
To support even higher standards of quality and efficiency, the facility will also incorporate a MecWash industrial component cleaning plant. This advanced cleaning system will ensure exceptional levels of cleanliness and repeatability, meeting stringent customer specifications while reinforcing the company\u2019s robust internal quality assurance processes.<\/p>\n
Sustainability is a central pillar of the project. In line with Harrison Silverdale\u2019s long-term environmental strategy, the site will feature a 41 kW PV solar array. The installation will generate a significant share of the facility\u2019s energy requirements, reducing carbon emissions and contributing directly to the company\u2019s net-zero ambitions.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cOur investment in this new facility reflects our dedication to innovation, quality, and environmental responsibility,\u201d said Mark Harrison, Managing Director at Harrison Silverdale. \u201cBy integrating cutting-edge machining, advanced component cleaning, and renewable energy generation, we are building a manufacturing operation ready for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Construction is already underway, with completion scheduled for May 2026. The project is expected to support continued business growth, create new skilled employment opportunities, and reinforce Harrison Silverdale\u2019s reputation as a leading UK supplier of precision fasteners and assembly components.<\/p>\n
