With the Winter Olympics underway, we’re looking back at one of our exciting behind the scenes projects…⛷️

Back in 2022, our tech team supported a promotional video by creating 3D printed miniature snow scenes - helping bring a creative concept to life through rapid prototyping, precision printing and a lot of attention to detail.

While the final video looked seamless, behind the scenes we were busy:
• Designing and printing detailed landscapes
• Testing materials to get the perfect snow effect

It was a brilliant example of how innovation, creativity and technology come together!

Happy Chinese New Year!🏮

To celebrate the Year of the Horse, our tech team have been busy bringing this dual-coloured print to life using our LANDR 3D printer.

The final result showcases the precision of our additive manufacturing capabilities - printed in 18 hours and using 0.5kg of material from start to finish.

Noticing a dip in productivity as February sets in?

It’s common for the momentum of January’s goals and resolutions to slow once teams settle back into routine. As focus shifts to day to day delivery, strategic thinking and team alignment can easily fall behind.

Team away days can play a crucial role in reinstating and strengthening organisational culture.

We’ve been exploring the importance of away days in supporting clarity, collaboration and renewed motivation.

Stepping outside the usual working environment gives your team the space to:

• Reconnect around priorities
• Refresh perspectives
• Re-energise before heading into the next quarter

We offer a range of professional, flexible spaces ideal for productive off site sessions. Find out more here: https://buff.ly/I87x0XW

Exploring flexible ways of working in 2026?

As hybrid and remote working continue to evolve, having access to adaptable, professional space can make all the difference - whether you’re a sole trader, freelancer, or part of a small team.

Our flexible working options are designed to support different ways of working:

• Hot desking - simple, pay as you go setup for those who need an occasional desk without long term commitments.
• Pop up offices - a quiet, private workspace for the day - ideal if you're not ready for a permanent office but want a dedicated environment to focus.

Whether you’re testing a new location, looking for a change of scenery once a week, or searching for a more professional alternative to working from home, our flexible spaces help you work your way.

We’ve just had solar panels fitted on our roof!

We’ve taken another step toward reducing our carbon footprint with new solar panels. This supports the University of Huddersfield’s wider sustainability initiative and builds on our ongoing efforts to cut waste and single-use plastics, repurpose resources and introduce greener systems across the building.

As proud winners of the Business Recycling Award in 2024, we’re committed to making our future operations even more sustainable.

Why low volume production works for growing businesses🚀

Additive manufacturing is changing how small businesses approach low volume production - offering faster turnaround, lower upfront costs, design flexibility and the ability to produce exactly what’s needed, when it’s needed.

We support start ups and SMEs to explore how additive manufacturing can help:
• Test and validate designs quickly
• Produce low volumes without expensive tooling
• Customise products without added complexity
• Scale ideas efficiently and confidently

Whether you’re bringing a new product to market or refining an existing one, additive manufacturing can remove many of the traditional barriers to manufacturing.
