THE FUTURE FACE OF METAL FINISHING
The traditional view of the metal finisher is one of a small
enterprise focused on local industry, marginally meeting environmental
regulations, with a return on investment in single figures and little
long term strategic planning.
So it's rare to find a company breaking all these traditional rules and
facing the future with excitement and anticipation.
NZG (Nottingham Zinc Group) is one such company with both the desire
and skills to achieve their business plans and drive out business forward,
leading by example.
Strategy
Managing Director Blayne Flint has a strategic plan and vision for his
company that many would wish to emulate.
"Having secured contracts with some of the UK's leading
manufacturing organisations, against fierce competition, our business is
in excellent shape to exploit the changing market demands in terms of
technology and environmental pressure. We see opportunities where
others see problems and expansion potential when consolidation appears the
only option."
"The expansion of our Kirkby site has given us the opportunity to
install equipment and processes to address IPPC and climate change issues
along with options for removal of hexavalent chromium. Our ambition
is to be the benchmark company in our industry."
Best Available Technique
NZG were one of the first companies in the UK to utilise cyanide free zinc
processes and have now become established as one of the highest quality
metal finishers using green technology.
With one of the most advanced electroplating lines in the UK,
supporting world leading plating processes. NZG have set
out their stall to attract customers who regard environmental compliance
as mandatory, not optional.
Bright Future With a strategy built around quality and
reputation, NZG are prepared to do whatever it takes to differentiate
themselves and offer a real alternative to the traditional plater.
