MTM invests in new equipment

MTM has a strong track record in investing in modern efficient manufacturing and IT equipment in both good and difficult economic times.

The oldest piece of equipment at MTM was a paper guillotine which dates back to the 1970’s. This machine was purchased second hand in the 1990’s and was upgraded with digital controls about ten years ago. Although this essential piece of equipment has served us well for many decades, it was becoming increasingly difficult to obtain spares and the decision was made to replace it.
