Paragon Rapid Technologies, a leading name in the UK’s prototyping and manufacturing sector, proudly celebrates its 20th anniversary, commemorating two decades of assisting innovation and providing exceptional service, culminating in remarkable growth. Established in 2003, the company has emerged as a true pioneer in the field, catering to a diverse range of industries with its cutting-edge solutions and unmatched expertise.
From humble beginnings to a leading name in part manufacturing, Paragon Rapid Technologies has continually evolved and adapted to meet the ever-changing demands of the market. The company’s unwavering commitment to delivering high-quality products and personalised services has garnered them an impressive customer base and numerous accolades throughout their journey.
“We are incredibly proud to reach this remarkable milestone in our company’s history,” said Phill Adamson, Co-Founder and CEO of Paragon Rapid Technologies. “Over the past two decades, we have grown from a small startup to an industry leader. None of it would have been possible without the dedication and hard work of our talented team and the unwavering support of our valued customers.”
Investment in State-of-the-Art Technologies and People
Paragon Rapid Technologies owes much of its sustainability to its consistent investment in the latest technologies and machinery to ensure that they remain at the forefront of services to the manufacturing sector.
Apprenticeships have also played a crucial part in Paragon’s longevity and adaptability. From the very start, the company has invested in apprenticeship programmes to ensure skills development, improve productivity and foster loyalty. Testimony to this is the considerable talent in the Paragon workforce.
This dedication to innovation and people investments has allowed them to expand their capabilities, offering an extensive range of services. Their polymer additive manufacturing portfolio is now one of the largest in the country, and boasts some of the most advanced 3D printing technologies on the market, enabling cost-efficient production of component parts for real-world applications in industries such as the aerospace, automotive and medical sectors. This is complemented by a purpose-built CNC facility offering machining and inspection, and a continued commitment to offering more traditional manufacturing services such as vacuum casting, RIM and model making.
Customer satisfaction has also been a driving force behind Paragon Rapid Technologies’ success. By prioritising open communication and collaboration with clients, the company has fostered strong, long-lasting partnerships that have contributed to their sustained growth and reputation.
