EuroBlech wins for Atkin Automation

Coil handling and sheet metal processing equipment specialist Atkin Automation is celebrating a successful EuroBlech exhibition, held last October in Hanover.

The company says it has returned from the show with over £6 million in business opportunities. “Most of the detailed equipment quotations we are now issuing are as a result of our discussions at Hanover,” said managing director Chris Ward. Atkin is enjoying sales growth of over 40 per cent and Mr Ward anticipates that this year will see a number of new contracts won via EuroBlech. He also expects the company to deliver its first automated production line to China during 2007.
