About this business
A composites manufacturer in Newcastle upon Tyne, trading since 1993, producing glass-fibre and carbon-fibre mouldings such as covers, housings, tanks and marine parts for engineering customers. It owns its freehold workshop and has a team of 7 laminators and finishers. Turnover has grown each year from £797k to £890k, though EBITDA has eased from a peak of £164k to £140k as costs have risen. A buyer gets an owned site and a skilled craft team in a trade that is hard to enter from scratch.
