The UK manufacturing sector is a key part of the economy.
Employing over 2.7 million people across industries from advanced engineering to precision production. Businesses are navigating an increasingly complex environment: automation and Industry 4.0 are transforming production processes, while sustainability targets and Net Zero commitments are driving operational change.
