A high-quality workshop and a focal point for the business, created for Lubbering

Lubbering is a global leader in manufacturing high-precision tools for the automotive, aerospace and defence sectors. The success of their expansion into the UK has resulted in a larger purpose-built facility. Central to this new facility is the design of their new workshop, and Lubbering chose Dura for their design expertise to future-proof their operation.

After their first consultation with Dura, Lubbering saw immediately they would be able to provide the high-quality workshop equipment needed. Business Line Manager Alex Cuthell commented: “The 2D and 3D layouts sold it for us and brought our ideas to life! It allowed us to turn a thousand words into a succinct visual to show the team at Lubbering in Germany. It also allowed time for us to make any final adjustments before Dura started manufacturing our units”. The main workshop was fitted out with six distinct workstations, with stations in two rows ‘back to back’. enabling technician to work closely, whilst allowing them enough space of their own.

To provide flexibility, Lubbering also chose additional storage in the form of mobile tool cabinets and additional workstations were fitted into a room adjacent to the main workshop, for more intricate tasks. The new workshop has achieved Lubbering’s desires to create an ergonomic environment in which their technicians can enjoy working. This area also forms part of regular visits made by their key customers, and has become a ‘wow’ factor when they go in.
