Sustained Investment Reshapes Tratos for World Markets

The successful delivery of a five-year plan for investment and expansion at Tratos' UK manufacturing facilities has seen significant growth in resource and capability – and the opening up of new market sectors for the company's advanced cable.  In addition to increasing production efficiencies, with faster machines and a purpose-built factory, the company has been careful to invest in the professional development of its people.

During those past five years Tratos has transformed itself to cope with the speed of its own cable innovation – rapidly accepted by customers – and seen turnover and market share rise significantly.

With a growing reputation for quality, service, health and safety and bespoke solutions with additional benefits for customers, the company's new corporate video sets out the new-look company and explores the changes and challenges for Tratos across domestic and global markets.
