Somers Forge granted Fit for Nuclear Status

The Fit For Nuclear award is granted to companies that have benchmarked their performance against the standards demanded by the nuclear industry’s top tiers.

Over the course of the last 24 months, Somers has undergone in-depth assessment and driven improvement action plans across the business.

Technical manager Phil Postans commented: “It is continuing change, inevitable change that is the dominant factor in manufacturing industries today in order to remain successful. The Fit for Nuclear programme gave Somers a road map and standard for continuous change to continue our journey as a world-class forging supplier.”

Somers produces a wide range of forgings for both civil nuclear and defence applications worldwide. As a leading UK forge, the company holds expertise in the forging of materials which include stainless, duplex and nickel alloys.

This programme assures clients that Somers operations meet the standards required by UK’s nuclear power stations as the company continues to outline growth plans across multiple engineering sectors.
