This reinforces our commitment to providing high quality service and products to the aerospace supply chain and other customers.

Our team has worked extremely hard to implement a culture of continuous improvement, ensuring all processes and standards are met and Id like to thank each and every one of them, as without their hard work, this achievement would not have been possible.

I would also like to give thanks to Stuart McKee and the team at Collins Aerospace Kilkeel for continuing to sponsor IPC Mouldings through the SC21 Programme. To have their support is a great honour and we look forward to continuing this SC21 association going forward.
