So Clean You Need Sunglasses
A visitor to our production floors soon learns that working with Carbon and Graphite is not the dirty business they think it is.
Scrupulously clean workshops are the cornerstone of our approach to our product and services. A driving force in our industry, we have long recognised that a pleasant working environment instils a pride in everything that we do. Perhaps not surprisingly, this is also an essential requirement of our many high technology clients.
Le Carbone (GB) have over 50,000 square feet of space largely given over to our production floors. This teamed with 7 day, 24 hour shift working ensures that we are able to respond quickly to customers exacting requirements. With a wide range of automatic and manual machining centres we are able to cater for large production or small batch requirements.
Shaping the Future
With the current pace of technology it is important to embrace each new development or lead with your own. This is a philosophy that permeates the whole organisation. Our machine shop boasts some of the latest machines and software available, boosting production and cutting costs.
Moving with developments in the semi conductor industry we have invested in a Vitreous Carbon Impregnation plant that is unique in Europe. Investment in staff also has a priority with multi skill training and an apprentice program that secures our future workforce.
A Capacity to Adapt
To satisfy a large customer base with its associated component diversity requires facilities which are both flexible and of sufficient size to cope with a rapidly changing demand.
A Reputation to Maintain
It is all too easy to boast of Quality with regard to product or services, at Le Carbone (GB) we back our claims with internationally recognised accreditations and specific supplier approvals.
Already qualified to ISO 9002 we have recently achieved ISO 9001 (version 2000). On top of this, we have initiated a Quality and Continuous Improvement programme that will bring benefits to our Customers and our Organisation.
Housed in an impressive preserved building built in 1881 we dominate the local skyline. We take very seriously our duty towards the community and we work hard to minimise any environmental impact. This is not simply a mission statement our goal is to achieve ISO 14001 approval.
