Armfield Wins Large University Order

Ringwood based company, Armfield Ltd, who specialise in the design and manufacture of engineering teaching and training equipment for universities and colleges, recently obtained an order via its USA subsidiary, Armfield Inc, for equipment with a value in excess of $500,000.

While a handsome award in its own right, it is particularly pleasing for the company as this equipment has been purchased by the US Army Corp of Engineers and will be gifted by the Corp to Kandahar University in Afghanistan.

The initial contact was made by army personnel stationed in Kandahar who found the company and its products via the Armfield website. The equipment will be used to train Afghan students at the university studying the engineering disciplines of Civil and Mechanical Engineering.
