Britest has set itself the challenging targets of halving the total time from the start of process development to manufacture, reducing manufacturing time (work in progress) - with a subsequent 50% reduction in working capital, reducing total plant capital cost by 30-40% and producing a plant that has a higher occupancy and is inherently more flexible than a traditional unit.
