Global group takes up bespoke space at Birchwood Park
Warrington’s Birchwood Park has welcomed the return of Sonomatic to a new, bespoke space, named Sonomatic E2i.
Sonomatic is a global business with many divisions. The E2i division combines a team of highly skilled technicians and engineers that specialise in the design, development and provision of solutions for group, while the Specialised Field Services division is focused on the application of the equipment for Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) inspections.
Developed as a ‘centre of excellence’, Sonomatic E2i has been established to accommodate the company’s expanding array of tooling and capabilities in creating, modifying, and adapting tools for various applications, both above and below water.
Sonomatic E2i comprises 24,239 sq ft in total space, including a 20,855 sq ft warehouse and a first floor office, providing an expansive opportunity for the development team and specialised units to foster innovation and unlock fresh opportunities for growth.
The flexibility of the large space, combined with the park’s extensive list of collaborative businesses that offer specialist services within the engineering and nuclear sectors, were driving factors behind Sonomatic’s move to the Birchwood Park.
James Butterworth, General Manager at Sonomatic E2i, said: “We are thrilled to have moved into our new, purpose-built facility at Birchwood Park.
“Our new facility serves as a catalyst for realising our vision – not only enhancing our support for specialised field services, but also laying the foundation for the expansion of our commitment to develop a diverse range of solutions for our wider group.
“The park’s unique office and warehouse spaces have allowed our team to build a bespoke facility right in the heart of the North West.”
Martin O’Rourke, Commercial Director at Birchwood Park, said: “We’re thrilled to see Sonomatic, a previous occupier of ours, return and open a ‘centre of excellence’ right here on Birchwood Park.
“Our flexible workspace offering is designed to empower businesses on the park and support their adapting needs through their growth journey. We’re confident that Sonomatic’s new space will allow the team to thrive and maintain its position as industry leaders in the field.”
Sonomatic moved off Birchwood Park in 2013.
Birchwood Park has welcomed a range of new occupiers to Birchwood Park. Over the past 12 months, the park has welcomed 44 office and warehouse spaces to new and existing companies who expanded their premises.
