Continued investment throughout the decades has made the Barry site one of the most advanced facilities in the world for the production of silicon-based materials.

Commenting on the contract award, Simon Hicks, Managing Director for UK, said, “I am delighted that Cape has secured this contract renewal at Dow Chemicals, Barry, South Wales. Cape has a longstanding relationship with Dow Chemicals, spanning more than a decade and we look forward to continuing to work with this important client to deliver our critical industrial services across their asset.”
