UK-based company Morgan Marine has completed the installation of a 5t overhead gantry crane at its laminating area as part of the company’s ongoing investment and modernisation programme.

The company said: “The new crane will improve safety, material handling, and operational efficiency while supporting our future growth plans.
“A huge thank you to everyone involved in delivering the project safely and successfully.”
