Accelerating Business Innovation
Company
Over the course of the KTP Copper Industries (Ireland)
Ltd has gone from strength to strength in a highly
competitive market, expanding their product range
and entering into a new market through the creation
of a sister company in the Republic of Ireland - LB
Cylinders Ltd.
The construction of a state-of-the-art in-house research
and development facility has allowed for the rapid
development of new products as well as an increased
awareness of the technical capabilities of their existing
product range.
The technical expertise gained from the Associate and
the knowledge base has given the company confidence
in expanding into the supply of renewable technologies.
The skills imbedded within the company have enhanced
the overall technical capacity of Copper Industries
creating a sustainable platform for business growth
extending beyond the duration of KTP.
