Show Notes
In this episode we were joined by CEO Danny Fantom and Managing Director Daryl Lowe to talk about:
* All things laser
* The meteoric rise of their business since 2011
* The outlook for laser in the UK
* And the business becoming an employee-owned business in 2020
This podcast was recorded in May 2021, so the business has moved on apace since we were first on site. Danny and Daryl spoke about growing a start-up business in the UK Manufacturing sector from scratch.
Featured in the podcast are subjects including buying the best equipment you can afford, slices of luck along the way, doing every job in the business, COVID, building a strong and reliable team, the future outlook for the laser industry in the UK, and becoming an owner-managed business in 2020.

What is The Metal Guys Talk Business?
Peter Comerford and Mike Bolton are The Metal Guys! They have worked in the metal sector for over 10 years, a huge global industry that produces more than a billion tonnes of material annually and affects all other industries and walks of life.
They now run a successful recruitment and marketing company servicing the metal and engineering sectors, making them ideally placed to provide impartial, independent insight into the industry, sitting outside the hierarchy of the various stages of the industry from raw material to finished product.
Under the moniker of The Metal Guys, the pair continue to gain insights from - and ask the difficult questions to - the decision makers and technical experts that you won't hear on any other podcast.
If you produce, work with or supply metal, then tune in and join the conversation.
