Navigating the Future of Eurotubes
Eurotubes is a very specialist company operating in a niche sector set up by Greg’s father. He discovered an innovative method ensuring precision winding of wire on spindles.
Fitting out and adapting the building to their needs was essential. The developers were providing a basic 6,000 square foot shell with a concrete floor, metal building, small toilet, kitchenette and a couple of roller doors. Gregg knew that adding in a mezzanine would provide valuable extra space so began hunting for suitable contractors, which is how he encountered Spaceway. Their professionalism instantly impressed him as they had a marketing pack on his desk within a short time. He knew that running a business and trying to manage a fit out project of this kind himself was unviable, and that using a specialist company possessing the resources to design and deliver it was the ideal answer. His developer confirmed that Spaceway provided good service and quality fit outs.
Initial manufacture took place in Greg’s father’s shed, before moving into 13 little workshops, then into a former draftsman’s office with lots of box rooms in which people worked at benches. Introducing CMC machines meant adapting the building and as Greg indicates, it resulted in a very impractical situation.
Greg had been considering future options for some time when a developer he knew sent him an email about some new units being created nearby. The site looked lovely, spacious and unspoiled sea views. It was perfect, Greg quickly signed up for Unit 1, Lynx Building in Navigator Park.
It’s no good having just an empty industrial building you need a concept for space, a design, an infrastructure and someone to build it. Designing something like this from scratch with someone who’s willing to invest in your ideas, Spaceway is your perfect partner.

The end Result
Spaceway not only met Greg’s expectations but exceeded them creating solutions to issues such as the need for soundproofing partitions, unexpected construction hitches such as last minute electrical supply problems and trying to manage the grand opening. Spaceway’s project manager worked closely with the company at every point, and as Greg points out “They even helped the delivery guys get the office furniture in so they could get it ready. Spaceway even went above and beyond to make sure I had my grand opening. I’ll thank them forever for that because it was a sensational success.”
