Despite a high order book at the beginning of our financial year, this did not convert immediately into high productivity as there was a lot of forward ordering and projects waiting approval/sign off in the early months. However, by mid-summer things started to hot up (no pun intended) resulting in extra hours for everyone and recruiting additional staff in the engineering & sales section, shop floor manufacturing and on-site work. This produced a record month's output in September and a record year overall. The good news is that activity remains high into our new financial year.
