Location: 11 Oldfield Lane, Holbeck, Leeds LS12 4DS.
We have been invited by John Crabtree of CMBE to visit their major site in Leeds. This 150,000 sq. ft. facility, located on the M62 corridor, was opened in 2021 to increase production capacity. The company designs and manufactures high-performance machinery for the beverage, food, and aerosol can industries. The visit will start with a short talk in the board room to be followed by a tour of the factory where the machines are assembled.
Places on the visit must be booked and all visitors must wear their own safety boots or shoes but the company has kindly offered to supply safety specs and hi-vis vests for the tour. Mr. Crabtree has advised that he will send an ‘Induction Video’ to John Aldersley to prepare visitors for health and safety requirements during the tour of the factory. This video will be added to this page as soon as it is available, so please keep an eye on this event page if you are attending.
