A Lancashire business that makes sophisticated engine and exhaust components for some of the world’s most famous vehicle brands has opened a new multimillion pound technical centre in Warton.
Helical Technology’s purpose-built Warton Technical Centre comprises a 1,700 sq m test area, a 3,500 sq m prototype and manufacturing workshop, a drive-by noise test track and two-storey office facility.
Helical’s growth has been backed by significant long term investment by Yorkshire Bank, including £2m of working capital funding to support the latest expansion.
The business designs and manufactures actuators for turbochargers, and valve rotators for large diesel and gas engines, as well as actuated valves for automotive exhaust systems.
