AFTER A challenging 18 months, growth for the UK manufacturing sector is set to double this year [1]. Despite production lines gathering speed, challenges such as a widening skills gap, increasing demand and unplanned downtime risk are still prevalent. Optimised operations depend on reliable equipment, which in turn depends on an effective maintenance programme:
ONE OF the key learnings from COVID-19 is the importance of industrial expertise. UK manufacturers who worked together to produce over 14,000 ventilators during the pandemic [1], is just one example of how collaboration and knowledge-sharing has helped drive recovery.
THE MANUFACTURING industry faces a dual challenge – reducing carbon emissions, while continuing to meet demand and production goals. Many UK manufacturers (84%) (1) view sustainability as an opportunity for positive transformation but see digitisation as a longer-term solution and are seeking ways to make a difference today:
TO MEET 2050 net-zero carbon goals, the UK government recently announced that industrial emissions will need to reduce by two-thirds by 2035 (1). At the same time, the UK remains a significant manufacturer, with a continuing drive to increase productivity. Companies are seeking positive ways to meet both their sustainability and commercial targets now and in the future.
