With grant funding, ABM has successfully installed Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, a major upgrade that will streamline operations, reduce duplication, and improve workflow across the business. The new system will also allow customer orders placed via the company鈥檚 website to be transferred directly into production, increasing speed and accuracy. The company has also invested in a new variable鈥憇peed air compressor, which is expected to reduce electricity consumption by around 10%, supporting both cost savings and environmental responsibility.
Gareth Bowen, Director of Adhesive Backed Materials Ltd, said:

Development, added: 鈥淚t was great to visit ABM and see their manufacturing facility. With the support of the Business Development Grant, the company will be able to improve efficiency and reduce their energy consumption.鈥�
