The State of Manufacturing on TE Talks

The State of Manufacturing 2023 Report, conducted for Essentra Components by The Engineer Magazine, sought to uncover the biggest concerns facing engineers working in UK manufacturing.

The report focuses on respondents’ attitudes to future talent, technology, sustainability, and a heavily impacted supply chain in a post-COVID world. 

Scott Fawcett, Chief Executive Officer, Essentra PLC, says the performance of the manufacturing sector is often seen by Government and the media as a barometer for the UK’s wider economic wellbeing: “With this report, we are demonstrating our responsibility as a leader to dig beneath the surface and find out what is really going on behind the numbers, to help inform future decision making.”

In the latest episode of TE Talks, Scott discusses the findings of the report with Jon Excell from The Engineer Magazine. Watch the interview:
