BTS Facades and Fabrications hosts networking event in partnership with the AMF

The event (Btsfabrications.co.uk/champion-north-east-businesses/), which took place on Wednesday, welcomed fabrication businesses from across the North East to share knowledge and exchange expertise.

The team of 48 at BTS, who manufacture high-quality facades and rainscreen products for clients around the country, were at the forefront of the event, exhibiting their products and sharing reflections on their recent successful move into automation. 

The event, which included a factory tour, presentation and an exchange in best practice, was even granted the seal of approval by Newton Aycliffe’s Mayor, Ken Robson, who said he is “blown away at what the business has managed to achieve.”

Philip Atkinson, BTS’ managing director, said: 

"It’s such an honour to have been able to host this event at our offices, which are a showroom for exactly what we do. 

Some incredible North East industry leaders attended. These events are all about learning from one another, and that's exactly what we saw today.

I hope that everyone who came along was able to see that our investment into automation and machinery has made a huge difference to the way we work, and it is certainly the way forward for us.

This certainly won’t be the last time I invite fellow business leaders over to our offices; I love showing people around and banging the drum for our incredible workforce and for our thriving sector.”

22 people attended the event which was co-hosted by the AMF, a membership forum whose aim is to bring together the North East’s manufacturing and engineering community to create successful opportunities.

Arthur Hodgson, AMF’s forum manager, said: “We’ve had a fantastic visit and it’s been great to bring the members down to BTS.  

“All of the members I have spoken to have had a brilliant day, it’s been fascinating.

“The feedback is that I now have a hard bar to try and beat for the next event.”

The networking forum hosts monthly get togethers with local businesses so that they can exchange best practices.

The next forum is on 21 September at Tharsus, and BTS will be sure to attend to learn more about what others are doing in the industry.

Peak Eyecare of Durango Announces the Use of the IPL Machine to Treat Dry Eye Disease

Durango, CO -  Peak Eyecare is implementing Intense Pulsed Light treatment to treat patients with Evaporative Dry Eye Disease. IPL treatment has been used by dermatologists and aestheticians for the past 30 years. The goal of this treatment has been to remove skin blemishes such as sunspots, small blood vessels commonly called “spider vessels'', and unwanted hair follicles. When the treatment zone neared the eyelids, patients reported a substantial improvement in their dry eye symptoms.

What is Evaporative Dry Eye Disease?

 

Inflammatory biomarkers are released from the spider vessels found around the eyelids. This inflammation limits the amount of free-flowing, healthy oil that can be released from the meibomian glands in the eyelids. Further, bacteria and mites on the eyelid margin create a biofilm that also clogs the meibomian glands. When the meibomian glands become clogged, no oil is produced on the tear film, so tears evaporate way too fast, causing signs and symptoms of Evaporative Dry Eye Disease.

How IPL Treats Evaporative Dry Eye Disease

Intense Pulsed Light attacks Evaporative Dry Eye Disease in multiple ways. During each treatment session, a high energy light is used to flash the treatment area on each lower eyelid. This high energy burst of light ablates the small spider vessels, or telangiectasia, that is found on the eyelids. When the telangiectasia is reduced, the inflammatory markers cannot be released, thus restoring healthy function to the meibomian glands. In addition, the flash of light kills the bacteria and mites that make up the biofilm, further allowing the meibum to flow more freely. To learn more about Evaporative Dry Eye Disease and to find out if you are a candidate for IPL treatment, schedule your appointment at peakdurango.com.

How Electrical and Electronic Product Manufacturers Can Optimize NRTL Safety Certification

SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published a Consumer Compact article that details five simple things manufacturers of electrical and electronic (EE) products can do to optimize certification by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). 

 

Any electrical item used in a US work environment must be certified by an NRTL. This requirement does not apply to EE for the home space but retailers often require NRTL certification so they can sell products for use in both environments.

SGS’s Consumer Compact article details the five things manufacturers should consider in order to streamline their NRTL certification process and therefore optimize their route to market.

 

Read the original Consumer Compact article, ‘Streamlining the NRTL Certification Process for Electrical Products’.

 

SGS Solution

SGS provides a comprehensive range of services to help manufacturers and retailers ensure EE products conform to OSHA and other governmental requirements. They hold NRTL accreditations covering a wide variety of products, including power tools, household appliances, lighting, medical equipment, batteries, IT equipment, audio-visual equipment, and products for hazardous and potentially explosive environments. Once a product has been certified it can bear the SGS North America Listed Mark. In the end, it’s only trusted because it’s tested.
