The Manufacturing Technologies Association (MTA) says that the Engineering Industries Association (EIA) is changing its name to Engineering Supply Chain UK (ESCUK). The update better reflects current market needs and the core activities of members. ESCUK represents technology users within advanced manufacturing and, alongside offering a member discount at the MACH show, is looking to create a database for UK supply chain companies.

As part of the MTA cluster, which also includes Additive Manufacturing UK (AMUK) and the MACH exhibition, ESCUK aims to showcase its members’ capacity, capability, products and services within the UK supply chain. Changes in trends over the past five years, specifically around reshoring and sovereign manufacturing, has seen an increase in UK-based demand and the rebranded association will better reflect the offering of its members.
