Howmet Join MIM to Benefit from Unmatched Online Exposure

Howmet Fastening Systems Industrial Products 13/02/2023

Made in the Midlands (MIM) membership offers member manufacturers unlimited access to online exposure through its platform. First on Google for Midlands manufacturing and a social reach of 35K followers, the group has become the go-to organisation for businesses to elevate their brand online. New member Howmet Fastening Systems (HFS) are hoping to benefit from networking, learning and sharing best practices opportunities via the Made platform.

Howmet Fastening Systems is a global manufacturer of fasteners for the aerospace and industrial sector. Their Midlands branch, based in Telford, is just 1 of 29 locations based in 12 different countries. Following significant investment in new machinery to expand manufacturing capabilities of large diameter lockbolts, HFS are now able to provide a wider range of fastening solutions to a broader array of industries and markets. Jonathan Craven, Operations Director at Howmet said:

“Dedicated to industrial production, we manufacture a range of internationally renowned, highly engineered industrial fasteners under the Huck brand name. We support a variety of industries and markets, especially automotive, renewable energies and construction.”

HFS are looking forward to sharing their latest news to the Made platform to benefit from the organisation's network. Member news is featured in a digest that goes out to 7,000+ industry professionals. The HFS team will also be attending Made events, virtual and in person, to network with manufacturing members of the group. Jonathan continued:

“From a sales perspective, we are looking forward to engaging with anyone interested in fastening systems. However we would also like to meet members that specialise in materials, supply chains, service providers, logistics and other opportunities to learn best practice from.”
