Turnover grew in 2004 by an exceptional 64% to £4.1m.

Consequently, all costs associated with this expansion (except for £1.2m of equipment) have been funded from cashflow, including £55k spent on IT systems and software upgrades.

Carlton Laser demonstrated that it had advanced planning expertise and systems in place in 2003, when it installed a unique automated cell that linked a punch press and a laser cutter to a single material storage system loaded for lights out running over 48 hours; and was probably the only subcontractor in the UK working in this way.

Early in 2002 the company became one of only a few laser job shops in the UK to install a LaserQC (1200x1200) machine and offer its inspection services to other laser cutting contractors.

In 2005 Carlton Laser Services plans to target the market for plastic parts by offering equivalent metal fabrications at a fraction of the cost.
