The Swiss technology giant ABB said it will invest more than $35 million in Nottingham in the United Kingdom to build a greenfield facility to meet increased UK demand for Furse earthing and lightning protection solutions.
The new manufacturing plant and R&D facility is expected to be opened in early 2025. More than 100 staff will relocate to the new 9,500 square metre facility from the existing 6,300-square-metre ABB Installation Products Nottingham foundry.
The new campus will occupy nearly five acres in Fairham Business Park, within close proximity of ABB's existing Wilford Road site.
