MADE in Sheffield, the prestigious regional manufacturing brand relaunched in 2005, has named Rotherham-based Kostal UK as its 100th member.
Kostal develops and manufactures advanced electronic, electro-mechanical and mechatronic products. The group has 28 locations in 15 countries and a workforce of around 11,000.

For leading edge companies like Kostal the MiS brand represents a unique mark of quality that is now recognised around the world."
Kostal managing director Martin Wood said: "Being entitled to use the Made in Sheffield descriptor makes a powerful statement, given Sheffield's global reputation for manufacturing excellence.
"I'm fully convinced it will be hugely beneficial for us to be associated with such a strong brand – and, of course, it's an added privilege that we join the fold as the 100th member."
