Scorpion Oceanics has invested in new plant and machinery to undertake the polyethylene moulding process that is used extensively in military applications, especially on hydrophones and connector systems for long term immersion. The Company recently moved to a larger and purpose designed facility on an adjacent site to accommodate the expansion.

The Company currently serves the UK Market with Cortland manufactured cables and high modulus fibre ropes, Birns and Souriau underwater electrical connectors, Scorpion designed terminations and mouldings. The addition of this process will complement Scorpion's existing services and add significant sales opportunities, particularly for Jupiter and Souriau connectors.
