Scheurer Swiss also expanded its core competence team with an experienced and well-connected consultant in the nautical sector. Since the U.K. is said to be the largest and most influential market in terms of technology and application of composite materials — particularly in the areas of motor sports and aerospace — and because Scheurer Swiss has already served customers in this region, establishing Scheurer Swiss in the U.K. market, with a permanent branch office and a contact person directly onsite, was a natural step.
