A bondtesting and X-ray technology company has announced plans to move its UK group headquarters to a larger facility in Aylesbury.

Dage Precision Industries, which is owned by leading adhesive manufacturer Nordson, will move to the state-of-the-art facility in the area, twice the size of its old base.

Its UK workforce will relocate to the new site, which measures more than 36,000 sq ft, enabling it to develop and co-ordinate business with its global offices and clients in China, Japan, Singapore, Germany and the United States.

Steve Kew, CEO of Dage said: “This move gives us a new state-of-the-art facility combining X-ray and bond tester manufacturing and worldwide customer support to help drive further growth in the years to come and support the significant investment in product development we continue to make at Dage. We are now in a unique position to expand our range of products and services within the electronics and related industries.”

The move comes after Dage was bought by the Nordson Corporation in 2006 and creates more new development opportunities for the company and its 200-strong workforce.

The facility will include a large production area, including a cleanroom which will be used for the assembly and testing of the ultra high bandwidth bond tester transducers.

The facility will maximise efficiency of workflow resulting in increased productivity, enhanced quality systems and faster delivery times.
