This project will invest to both secure and grow manufacturing at Pall Newquay. Two sub-projects are being undertaken and these concern the investment in filter media modification technology and the capability to manufacture a new generation of breathing filters at the site.
Media Modification
This sub-project involves the investment of £2.1 million to provide the site with the ability to modify the surface characteristics of filter media. This facility will enable the company to reduce product miles incurred through current internal supply chain arrangements, reduce cost and also result in the creation of 25 jobs and safeguarding of 21 jobs.
Breathing Filters
This sub-project involves the investment of £2.6 million in manufacturing capacity that will enable the Newquay plant to manufacture breathing filters that have been developed in the Pall Corporation. The investment in breathing filter manufacturing capability will result in the creation of 33 jobs and safeguarding of 49 jobs.
