          major cladding competitor, who recommended us. We received emails saying
        
        
          they had a number of globe valves they were having real trouble with, and could
        
        
          we help them? This was quite interesting because it confirmed that there are
        
        
          companies having problems with globe valves, and that it is recognised that we
        
        
          are one of few companies in the world capable of solving the problem,” Robinson

          the workshop capacity. The existing machines are already fully scheduled to
        
        
          the middle of 2016, which is good news for the business. So, with another 30 in.
        
        
          contract anticipated, the company is confident the pattern of growth is set to
        
        
          continue. The new welding equipment is now to be supplemented by state of the
