Williams Jet Tenders launches new state-of-the-art research and development space

Williams Jet Tenders, the world’s leading jet tender specialist, has invested in excess of £450,000 (€527,600) in a brand-new research and development space.

This move follows the company’s announcement in 2021 that it had invested more than £1,000,000 (€1,172,370) in a new state-of-the-art, in-house moulding facility and fully equipped boat production unit.

The new 450m² research and development space was completed at the beginning of May and houses a new test tank which is capable of water testing tenders up to 7 metres (22 feet). This enables Williams Jet Tenders to ensure complete quality control over its entire range.

Dan Bloice-Smith, development director at Williams Jet Tenders, said, “This is a really exciting time for Williams. Our new research and development space is an excellent investment and will open up even more opportunities for the development of new market-leading products and innovations, ensuring we can maintain our position as a global leader.”

The new development also features new lifting equipment alongside dedicated research and development metal and composite areas, as well as three individual research and development build bays, enabling Williams Jet Tenders to run multiple projects concurrently.

Additionally, a photography studio has been created to capture some of the custom tenders which come through the Williams factory every week.

Bloice-Smith continued, “This is a fantastic development for the company and the facilities used by our hugely skilled workforce, which will not only enhance our products but our business growth too. We’re proud of what we are achieving as a company in the continued support of our customers.”
