Trudy Harrison, MP for Copeland recently visited Egremont-based firm Delkia to learn how the company has grown since her last visit in 2020.
Delkia has expanded significantly since 2020, growing from 15 employees to 56 with 37 consultant engineers. The firm has also increased its operation from one facility to three, and increased turnover by £6.4 million to £7.3 million.
Delkia has also grown the markets it serves and is now a significant specialist systems integrator operating in the Clean Energy, Aerospace and Maritime sectors, contributing to some of the largest safety and mission-critical national infrastructure projects in the UK.
Trudy Harrison said: “It was fantastic to revisit Delkia and see the impressive growth they have made. They are a real Cumbrian success story offering a vital service as specialist systems integrators to protect lives and assets. I am sure they will go from strength to strength.”
The firm’s growth has been led by chief executive Kurt Canfield.
He said: “It’s great to welcome Trudy Harrison back to Delkia and show her just how much progress we have made in the last four years.
“We focus relentlessly on offering the best in design, engineering, and systems integration to our customers. This is why we invest in R&D and opened new facilities in Preston – to meet customers’ needs in Aerospace, Clean Energy and Maritime sectors not just today but in ten years’ time.
“We have a long-term vision to be the UK’s leading engineering and technology partner for safety-related and mission-critical systems, driven by our purpose to protect lives and critical assets.”
