Gratnells Engineering

DEM Sports recently revealed an updated Concertina Cricket Net and Multi-Sport Foldaway Net System, engineered by Gratnells Engineering. These unique fold away, space saving systems have been designed to promote cricket at grassroots level, primarily for use in schools without fields or where space is at a premium.  

Chloe Winyard joined Gratnells Engineering as Marketing Assistant in May 2017 and has seen first-hand the positive impact of promoting Science, Technology, Engineering and Manufacturing subjects to young people. Winyard achieved STEM Ambassador status last year, making the decision to explore ambassadorship after being inspired by the impact and difference she has seen made since joining Gratnells Engineering.

The Harlow-based manufacturer is committed to promoting Science, Technology, Engineering and Manufacturing subjects to young people and recently welcomed local school students on-site for a day of activities. Historically known as the leading name in school storage in over 68 countries of the world (and the producer of the iconic Gratnells Tray) Gratnells Engineering has developed into a multi-sector manufacturer capable of providing high-volume laser cutting, powder coating and bespoke metal solutions to a wide range of customers.

  Since January 2018, a pioneering government campaign called the 'Year of Engineering' has been running. It is aimed at attracting the next generation of innovators to the industry and boosting the overall numbers of those interested in a career in the sector.
