Middlesbrough infrastructure firm takes space in riverside business park in expansion plans

A Middlesbrough infrastructure company has announced that it is moving to new premises near River Tees.

Durata, which specialises in critical power infrastructure for data-led industries, is relocating to TeesAMP, the £55m advanced manufacturing business park adjacent to Riverside Park.

The company, which employs 20 people, has taken 3,000 sq ft of industrial space in the park as part of its plans to expand its North East presence.

Geoff Hogg, chief executive of Chaloner Group - which created TeesAMP - commented: “We are exceptionally proud to welcome the Durata team to their new office on the TeesAMP development.

“We are confident that this will give them the opportunity to further expand into the Tees Valley area and the wider Northern region.

“The interest in the TeesAMP development from the technology and manufacturing sectors has been considerable, and we are looking forward to planning and seeing work begin on Phase Two soon.”

John McGee, managing director of Durata, said: “Our move to the prestigious TeesAMP development has been part of our strategic plans for the last two years, and we are proud that we are able to grow our presence in our home town of Middlesbrough.

“TeesAMP gives us the opportunity to attract new clients in and around Tees Valley, and our focus is very much on the innovative companies, and industry-leading cluster of technology based businesses that are right here on our doorstep.”
