Sapa Profiles invest in UK die making facilities

At the present time, the Tibshelf plant has largely conventional die maintenance facilities. However, the company is about to invest £0.25million in new die making technology which will bring a number of immediate benefits, including faster response times and the ability to modify dies in a very short time.

The new facility will focus on making flat dies using Sapa’s unique technology in die manufacture. Once on-stream, Sapa expect to create a new benchmark for the speed of turnaround of new dies to the market.
