AML3D expands into UK defence market with BAE Systems contract
AML3D Limited, headquartered in Edinburgh, Australia, has announced an AUS $0.83 million contract with BAE Systems (BAE), London, UK, under which AML3D will source 8.5 tonnes of nickel aluminium bronze (NAB) wire feedstock. This contract represents the initial steps in delivering the company’s new growth phase targeting UK and Australian defence markets.
AML3D CEO Sean Ebert said, “AML3D has been developing its relationship with the BAE Systems for over a year. It is very exciting to see that work translate into an initial contract from BAE Systems. It is even more exciting that this contract is planned to be just the first and I look forward to giving updates on additional contracts as the programme progress.”
“AML3D is moving into the next phase of our growth strategy, which includes leveraging the extraordinary growth and demand we are experiencing within the US Navy’s Submarine industrial base to expand into the Australia and the UK defence sectors.”
“Beyond this BAE Systems contract, AML3D is developing opportunities with other companies supporting the UK defence sector. And while winning defence contracts can take time, I am confident that we will be in a position to announce additional orders from the UK and Australian defence sectors to compliment the huge momentum we are seeing in the US,” Ebert added.
