We have said a very heartfelt ‘thank you’ to Stuart Corstorphine for 35 years of unstinting hard work and dedication to Powdertech Surface Science.
Stuart has retired, and this week in the main office we can’t believe that he will no longer be in that desk by the window. Stuart has always been here! With a degree in Biochemistry from Leeds University, Stuart joined Powdertech in 1987. Founder, Martyn Green, said that he could immediately see the potential in the twenty-something graduate. Stuart oversaw the installation of the UK’s first chrome-free metal treatment line in 2003, which resulted in commercial deals with the Jaguar Land Rover supply chain and other OEMs, which are still in place to date. He was appointed a Director of Powdertech Surface Science in 2007. Stuart will not have free rein for golf every day of the week though; for two days a month his expertise will be assisting us with one of our major collaborative research projects.
