Remploy Electronics has embarked on an investment programme that aims to turn its six dedicated electronics manufacturing facilities into "centres of excellence".
Remploy is investing in two new wave soldering machines, the first of which will be located at its Bolton manufacturing facility, and is also installing ancillary equipment for all sites.
Additionally, lead-free hand soldering pilot areas have been created across all locations and training is underway.
