Royal London Asset Management and XLB have secured new leasing deals at Abingdon Business Park in Oxfordshire.
Digital metallurgy company Alloyed has taken a 10,000 sq ft industrial facility on a 10-year lease. The move comes as the spin-out from the University of Oxford expands its additive manufacturing capabilities. Alloyed is headquartered at and operates from its existing alloy research facility at the Oxford Industrial Park.
Pieter Guichelaar, electronics business unit director at Alloyed, said: “The site in Abingdon is our first purpose-built prototyping and manufacturing centre with associated metallurgy lab and testing capabilities.
“As an engineering business with further growth opportunities, we look forward to investing and bringing a range of advanced additive manufacturing roles to the site.”
Williams Jet Tenders has also joined the park’s community by taking 14,500 sq ft of space at 3B Colwell Drive, also to satisfy its expansion requirements.
Tom Dowdell, head of marketing at Williams Jet Tenders, said the company was “looking for additional storage space to support our manufacturing and commercial facility nearby in Berinsfield”.
In addition, DNA fingerprinting company Cellmark, which occupies more than 50,000 sq ft at the park, has extended its lease and signed up to an additional lab facility.
Abingdon Business Park is a 50-acre mixed-use scheme comprising 464,000 sq ft of office, R&D and industrial facilities.
CBRE represented Royal London and XLB on the deals.
