Construction work has completed at a new Birmingham base for engineering group IMI Truflo Marine.
The company is planning to relocate from its current site in Westwood Road, Aston, to the new 57,000 sq ft head office building on the nearby Advanced Manufacturing Hub.
IMI Truflo Marine designs and makes critical flow control solutions for use in fields such as marine and nuclear and its new home will house both design and manufacturing facilities.
It will relocate to the manufacturing hub in the coming weeks after signing a new 15-year deal.
In 2020, Barberry Industrial, the Stourbridge-based property developer and investor, won a tender from Birmingham City Council and Homes England which jointly own the Advanced Manufacturing Hub to purchase this development site and lead the project for the new building.
