Rising export demand is expected to underpin the Northern Irelands company’s growth plans during the next five years, with major growth in market share anticipated in the Americas, Australia and western Europe.
Operations director Raymond Cooke said: “2015 was an exciting year for our company and we have been looking ahead to our growth potential for the coming years. We felt that it was a necessary step to develop a new assembly bay at our headquarters. This has increased our capacity by a third and allowed for an additional 60 machines to be exported every year.
“We already have the largest campus dedicated to the wet processing of minerals in the world and our expansion plans will necessitate a further development of this infrastructure. We look forward to consolidating our position as number one in some of our well-established export markets.”
Mr Cooke added: “This is just one of several significant decisions that we have taken in 2015. Late last year we announced that we were doubling the size of our office in North America, where there is a significant opportunity for the company to increase its market share. Achieving significant growth in the US and Canada will form a major part of our global strategy for the coming five years.”
