CHAIRMAN'S
STATEMENT (2 of 2)
As well as advanced digital techniques, we
have retained many traditional copying and replication processes
which are still in demand but have disappeared elsewhere. This has
made the division very attractive to larger organisations with document
storage problems and companies retaining or converting to digital
from microfiche and other photographic formats.
Universal Engineering and South Dorset
Engineering divisions historically have serviced different customers
but now share many. There are still a number of skills particular
to each division, but for new customers, the Company defines and
specifies which division provides the required processes.
Core business for both divisions is precision
engineering, for defence, aerospace, telecommunications, power
and exploration industries. Many of the divisions’ skills
are also valuable in vertical markets, so the Company will make
additional resources available as these come on stream.
We believe that by operating these separate
divisions, each with a complementary but different skill set,
the company is able to provide a comprehensive service to our
customers from the engineering and manufacturing industry, plus
the provision of a separate entry point into non-engineering sectors.
By protecting our core business and at the same time looking at
the wider marketplace, we are confident that Universal Engineering
Company (Charlestown) Limited is ready to match the challenges
ahead and continue to provide world class, quality services in
many new areas. previous
