Universal Accessible Toilet Module (UAT) - Birley Sub2

伯利制造有限公司是英国领先的汽车配件和铁路运输设备制造商之一。该企业由巴洛家族于1875年创立，现由迈克尔·巴洛（Michael Barlow）[第四代]所有。总部设在谢菲尔德，我们制造一系列的产品，木材，金属和其他材料，我们还专门定制和推出计划，为蓝筹客户。我们的团队由近90人组成，从熟练的钳工和金属加工专家到设计师、工程师、规划师和项目经理。由于我们参与了铁路行业，我们意识到英国和欧洲的立法变化意味着该行业必须在2020年前在所有铁路车厢中提供符合“行动不便人员”标准的厕所模块。这些模块将需要追溯性地安装在当前的机车车辆中，以及内置到新的机车车辆中。初步研究使我们相信，在未来6年内，将需要大约2,000个厕所模块进行改造，但该模块也可以用于未来所有的新建筑。在英国和欧洲，提供厕所和安装厕所的市场规模相当大，为车厢制造商制造模块的潜力也很大。我们已经建立了相当大的市场份额，并建立了长期的合作关系，我们相信我们可以在这个开发项目中取得成功，并且基于竞争有限的事实，我们有信心，如果资金到位，设计和开发“伯利模块”，我们肯定会获得一个主要的市场份额。这一发展也将巩固我们在市场上的地位，使我们能够为行业开发更多产品，并提高我们进入出口市场的能力。该项目将保障公司的未来，并将在各个层面支持英国经济，提供额外的有价值的就业和收入。

Birley Manufacturing Limited is one of the UK's leading manufacturers for interiorenvironments and rail carriage equipment. The business was founded in 1875 by the Barlowfamily and it is owned by Michael Barlow [4th generation]. Based in Sheffield, wemanufacture a range of products in wood, metal and other materials and we also specialise inbespoke and roll out programmes for blue chip clients. Our team comprises almost 90 peopleranging from skilled bench joiners and metal working specialists through to designers,engineers, planners and project managers.Due to our involvement in the rail industry, we have become aware that changes inlegislation, both in the UK and Europe, means the industry has to provide ‘Persons withReduced Mobility’ compliant Toilet Modules in all rail carriages by 2020. Such modules willneed to be retrospectively installed in current rolling stock as well as built into new rollingstock. Initial research leads us to believe that around 2,000 Toilet Modules will be requiredover the next 6 years for retrofit but the module can also be used in all future new builds. Themarket size for the provision of toilets and installation of such is considerable with theongoing potential of manufacturing modules for carriage builders, both in the UK and Europe.Having established considerable market presence and developed long term relationships, webelieve we can succeed with this development project and based on the fact that there islimited competition, we are confident that if funding is made available to design and developa “Birley Module” we would certainly achieve a major market share. This developmentwould also consolidate our position in the market, enable us to develop more products for theindustry and enhance our ability to enter export markets. The project will safeguard the futureof the company and will support the UK economy at all levels, providing additional valuableemployment and revenue.
