Supercraft open new facility in Brough - East Yorkshire

January 2014

Brough Aerospace Engineering facility

In addition to the site in Byfleet, Surrey, Supercraft have opened a new facility in Brough, on the banks of the Humber, East Yorkshire, and taken on employees following redundancies at BAE Systems in 2013.

Supercraft are planning to expand operations and take on further workers following recent orders from Airbus. The new Supercraft site became part of the Humber Enterprise Zone formed by the goverment in the wake of BAE's decision to downgrade its Brough operation. The zone is located at BAE Systems' site in Skillings Lane and forms part of 484 hectares of land that the Government has awarded Enterprise Zone status.

The new Brough facility will focus around the manufacture of pipes and ducting for aerospace clients, including Airbus, Agusta Westland and BAE Systems. Sales director Paul Barber said: “The business is growing all the time and we are looking forward to using the wealth of experience in aerospace manufacturing at Brough to continue this growth.” The Supercraft head office will remain in Byfleet, Surrey.
