Advanced Materials invests in major IT systems upgrade

Advanced Materials invests in major IT systems upgrade

We have invested in a major upgrade of our IT systems. The new cloud-based IT infrastructure improves the standard of our operations and the level of service that we give our customers.

Our brand new cloud-based IT system came online at the end of the first quarter. The upgrade is the latest phase in our long-term investment plan to cement Advanced Materials’ position as one of the country’s leading silicone rubber extrusion manufacturers.

New cloud-based IT system enhances customer service standards

The overhaul of our IT infrastructure brings greater security, flexibility and speed to our processes. We are now even better equipped to scale our business to meet customer demands and can offer them even faster response times and even stronger data security in relation to information migration and protection.

Furthermore, as a result of the IT systems upgrade, we have enhanced our disaster recovery infrastructure. This means that customer data and technology, and ours, are even better protected.

Our reputation is based on providing the highest-quality silicone products; investing in our operations is integral to maintaining our standing in the industry. The investment in our IT systems illustrates this dedication to excellence.

IT systems overhaul is the latest phase of a long-term investment plan

The upgrading of our IT systems in the first quarter of 2019 follows on from significant investment in our manufacturing capabilities over the last 12 months. We have invested in a new Iddon extruder machine, a new silicone mill for manufacturing compound and a new hotbox. We now operate eight extrusion machines at our Littlehampton base.

Alongside our investment in new equipment and systems, we are also continuing to expand the Advanced Materials team. We have recently strengthened our customer service, toolmaking and milling teams and updated our staff training system.

New investment part of Advanced Material’s commitment to excellence

In order to provide our customers with a consistently high-quality service, it is essential that we have advanced technology and dedicated expertise at our disposal. The upgrading of our IT systems is part of this commitment to superior standards.
