Préserver le passé avec une précision moderne : le rôle de Guyson au chemin de fer à vapeur d'Embsay & Bolton Abbey
Le fabricant d'équipements de finition Guyson International, basé à Skipton, a récemment installé une cabine de sablage Euroblast 7PF reconditionnée au chemin de fer à vapeur d'Embsay & Bolton Abbey. Ce chemin de fer patrimonial, qui a rouvert ses portes en 1981, présente des gares, des locomotives à vapeur et des wagons magnifiquement restaurés, dont certaines parties datent du style Midland Railway des années 1800 jusqu'au style British Railways des années 1950. Tout cela est entretenu par une équipe dévouée de bénévoles et de personnel. Les visiteurs peuvent profiter de promenades paisibles le long d'une ligne pittoresque d'Embsay à Bolton Abbey, au cœur des Yorkshire Dales.
During the visit, the Mayor of York and North Yorkshire met with key members of the leadership team, toured Guyson’s advanced manufacturing facilities, and gained first-hand insight into the company’s operations, innovations and growth strategy. The visit also provided an opportunity to reflect on the outcomes of the Dubai Airshow 2025 exhibition and the tangible benefits delivered through the York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority’s Get Exporting Grant.
Businesses like Guyson are the backbone of York and North Yorkshire's economy. Family businesses that through sheer Yorkshire grit and determination have become globally recognised symbols of excellence. It was great to meet Mark and the team and hear how they've used our Get Exporting programme to generate more business around the world.
One of the most notable outcomes from Guyson’s exhibition at Dubai Airshow, and bolstered by opportunities presented from last year’s UK-India Free Trade Agreement, has been the successful appointment of their new distributor, Blastera India. With expertise rooted in decades of technical heritage, Blastera are a trusted manufacturer and supplier of advanced shot blasting technology, demonstrating a shared commitment for delivering industry-leading quality and service, across India.
The grant received from the York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority was instrumental in elevating our international profile. It enabled us to showcase our capabilities, alongside our global representatives and Middle East distributor, launch our Global Aerospace Initiative and unlock new opportunities for growth across the region.
The visit not only celebrated Guyson’s past success but also highlighted how strategic local support can enable SMEs to innovate on a global scale. Building on this momentum, Guyson is accelerating its expansion into key international markets and strengthening its global presence, following the successful appointment of Euroblast Middle East and Blastera India, last year.
