HSSMI is proud to announce that our work in accelerating the development and scale up of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) has been recognised and nominated for a top engineering award at the Make UK Manufacturing Awards for the Midlands and East of England region.

Wilson Bio-Chemical Ltd and HSSMI, two Midlands-based SMEs, are celebrating after securing specialist innovation funding to future-proof the production of greener jet fuel by using circular economy practices and aerospace industry derived waste as the primary feedstock to manufacture SAF.

Insights from Britishvolt, UK Research & Innovation, RS Bruce, and HSSMI on what it will take to establish a Lithium Valley in the UK, as well as an extensive Q&A with questions raised by the industry.

This feasibility study will explore how advanced robotics processes could enable scale up of hydrogen fuel cell stack product manufacture.

The project partners will explore how lithium mica can be extracted from decomposed granite, which is abundantly present in Cornwall and used for the extraction of china clay.

The Hackathon for our Future Fashion Factory project with Burberry, the University of Huddersfield, and Miretur Ltd. sought to explore whether leather used in car seats can be given a second life and turned into a new product.
