This award recognises manufacturing and engineering companies which have committed to adopting technology and skills to digitalise, decarbonise, and drive growth within the UK’s manufacturing sector.
The Made Smarter Award, established to highlight the transformative impact of digital advancements in manufacturing, has acknowledged Weaver Dane Ltd for its groundbreaking work in leveraging Industry 4.0 technologies. By adopting smart solutions, Weaver Dane Ltd has not only enhanced its operational efficiency but also significantly reduced its environmental footprint.
“We are thrilled to have won this award which celebrates the progress we have made on our digital journey,” said Paul Dodd, Managing Director of Weaver Dane Ltd.
“Digital transformation and investing in new technologies can be challenging, but from the very first meeting, Made Smarter has made it simple. They helped us identify future objectives and create a digital roadmap. The grant funding enabled us to fast track our investment in a 3D furniture design solution by 18 months. This technology has made us more efficient, productive, and no doubt will result in being more profitable. It has allowed us also to venture into new locations, which in return will create new jobs and our existing workforce has definitely been upskilled.”
