Hayward Tyler Group plc, the specialist engineering group headquartered in Luton, is delighted to announce the official opening by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge of its Centre of Excellence. Additionally the Duke and Duchess also made the presentation of the Queen's Award to Ewan Lloyd-Baker, the Chief Executive of the Hayward Tyler Group.

The Centre of Excellence is now the world's most advanced facility for specialist fluid-filled motor manufacturing.

"It was a pleasure to have so many of our customers and other stakeholders witness the Royal visit, and see the outcome of all the hard work we have delivered over the past few years. We were proud to showcase the new facility to our strategic partners and loyal customers who will benefit from our enhanced capabilities."
