KASTO's new HQ in Milton Keynes Sawing machine and storage system specialist, KASTO Ltd, is moving its UK headquarters, showroom, technical centre and warehouse from Milton Keynes to Milton Keynes. They will be operational from the new premises as from 1st October 2009. The address is Unit 5, Garamonde Drive, Wymbush, Milton Keynes, MK8 8DA and the new telephone number is 01908 571590. All e-mail details remain the same, including the general sales and service contact Ernst Wagner, Managing Director, says that the new building is similar in size to the old premises in Milton Keynes but much closer to its main customer base, which is to a large degree located north of the M4 motorway. Many of its aerospace customers as well as KASTO users in the offshore, automotive and construction sectors are also to be found dotted around from south to north and a more central location is thus advantageous. "In December 2002, our German parent company took over its former UK agent, Rivers Machinery, and contractually inherited the Milton Keynes premises", said Mr Wagner. "Milton Keynes was never an ideal location for our headquarters, whereas Milton Keynes is central and offers many advantages including a direct M1/A5 link from junction 14." "Some of our customers will furthermore benefit from the shorter travel distances of our service engineers, who are based around Milton Keynes in particular." Inaugural open house Three high-performance sawing machines will be on display under power, from top-end carbide band saws and circular saws to workshop models for moderate to occasional use. Circular saws from Italian principal, FOM Industrie, will also feature. Representative of the company's vast range of CNC vertical storage systems for raw material, both long stock and sheet, will be a six metre high Unitower C3.0 sheet format storage tower which is being used to manage the spares and consumables for the company. Having its own integral crane picking from the storage locations, each of which is of three tonnes capacity, the tower is intended for efficient storage on a small footprint of raw material, remnants, semi-finished products and other items such as locally held spares and consumables. KASTO Ltd's SAP link to the parent company allows the storage facility to fully support the UK subsidiary's own in house spare parts activities, giving best practise support to the UK customer base. Anyone interested in attending the Open House should contact Ernst Wagner
