General Manufacturing


Newton has considerable experience in a wide range of industries including pharmaceutical, automotive, metalworking, building materials, flooring and tobacco, as well as our specific sectors of paper, plastics and packaging, chemicals, food and drink and defence.

In this current marketplace many manufacturing organisations are concerned with protecting existing business from overseas competitors at a time when demand is falling, while material and fuel prices are rising.

What we do


Newton works with these organisations to improve operational efficiency and directly increase bottom line profit through the shop floor.

Our clients are usually organisations interested in gaining a competitive edge and may be experiencing any of the following:
  • Business downturn
  • Increase in demand not matched by production
  • Competitor activity
  • New equipment not delivering envisaged value
  • Venture capitalist ownership seeking exit
  • Reduction in planned capital expenditure
Newton has been engaged by organisations to address all of these problems through increasing operational efficiency on the shop floor using a new approach focused specifically on driving additional sustainable profit into the business.
