Barum & Dewar is delighted to confirm a further contract award from long-standing client Surrey Satellite Technology Limited (SSTL).

This latest project will once again see previously supplied transit containers being given a new lease of life. As SSTL continues to evolve its satellite products, Barum & Dewar has been asked to modify the original containers to support larger payloads by incorporating innovative new spacer sections, increasing overall container height while maintaining stability and performance.

In addition to the structural modifications, Barum & Dewar will also be taking the opportunity to review and update the original lifting features on the container bases. These revisions will ensure full compliance with the latest handling standards demanded across the UK space sector.

The project is scheduled for completion in summer 2025, and once again highlights Barum & Dewar’s ability to deliver practical, high-performing solutions that extend the operational life of existing assets while adapting to new technical requirements.
