HMS Victory Restoration project based at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard
East Midlands Manufacturing Network member, West Special Fasteners, won a historic fastener contract for the restoration of HMS Victory in Portsmouth, following a lengthy tender process in which they were successful. The ship, which is the oldest commissioned warship in the world, is undergoing a major restoration project to preserve it for future generations. The contract is a testament to the quality of the products and services provided by this company.
West Special Fasteners have a long-standing reputation for excellence in the fastener industry and they are known for their innovative solutions and exceptional customer service. The restoration of HMS Victory is an important project that will ensure that this iconic ship remains a symbol of British naval history for years to come.
West Special Fasteners will be working closely with the team at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard over the next ten years to make sure that the best in bespoke fastener solutions are provided, in order to cater to the many different needs of the ship. A lot of the fasteners are non-standard, due to the construction methods of the past, and this is where their decades of experience and expertise really stands out.
A truly unique project such as this will need unique solutions, and that is where they are proud to play their part. Working with the designers and shipwrights, West Special Fasteners will be adapting to requirements on an ‘on demand’ basis – something that they are uniquely equipped and able to do. Once the work on the iconic ship is complete, she will be available to enjoy in all her glory for decades to come.
