Apart from building Ajax to be a leading UK company in solids handling, these include international consulting, securing various patents and innovative developments, advising as expert witness and designing various powder test devices. He has also presented more than 100 papers at International Conferences and Seminars and ran many in-house Seminars and workshops on aspects of solids handling.

It confirms that progress has been made to achieve and sustain the objective set out in his company mission statement: - ‘To provide a World-Class Service to the Bulk Solids Industry’.
