EJOT designs solutions to tomorrow’s problems
EJOT fastening products are found in countless assemblies around the world. The real-time cost of managing a fastening component impacts five critical areas: fastener, assembly, joint quality, procurement, and logistics. EJOT's ability to create one-sided assemblies or parts-reduced solutions means significantly higher performance and genuine 'bottom line' savings.
EJOT's portfolio includes fastenings for thin sheet through to cast metals, and thermoplastics. The technology to ‘build lighter, build stronger’ has seen the company develop market leading solutions for lightweight materials such as EPP foams and honeycomb composites. Leading automotive manufacturers now use EJOT’s EJOWELD technology for joining light alloys to high strength boron steel.

The Science and Technology Facilities Council, part of UK Research and Innovation, collaborates with businesses of all sizes to overcome innovation and process challenges in key sectors. With locations across the UK, we enable access to our scientific facilities, technology and engineering experts and international networks for project based work. Businesses can also chose to base themselves at one of our Research and Innovation campuses; where businesses, scientists and support organisations co-locate for mutual benefit.
We understand that accessing the right skills is a number one business challenge, and we are an organisation committed to developing the UK’s future generation of professionals working in STEM.
Inspiring tomorrow's engineers - We aim to inspire, engage and inform the next generation of engineers via programmes designed to excite young people about the variety and opportunity presented by a career in modern engineering and give them the chance to meet people already working as engineers.
The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) is the main funding body for engineering and physical sciences research in the UK. By investing in research and postgraduate training, we are building the knowledge and skills base needed to address the scientific and technological challenges facing the nation.
Our portfolio covers a vast range of fields from healthcare technologies to structural engineering, manufacturing to mathematics, advanced materials to chemistry. The research we fund has impact across all sectors. It provides a platform for future UK prosperity by contributing to a healthy, connected, resilient, productive nation.
EPSRC is part of UK Research and Innovation, a new body which works in partnership with universities, research organisations, businesses, charities, and government to create the best possible environment for research and innovation to flourish. We aim to maximise the contribution of each of our component parts, working individually and collectively. We work with our many partners to benefit everyone through knowledge, talent and ideas.
Way back in 1856 the founders of The Engineer laid out a vision to document and report on the astonishing innovations and breakthroughs of the industrial revolution.
More than 160 years later – although the technological landscape would be unrecognisable to our Victorian predecessors - the publication remains true to this vision.
Via its website and monthly print magazine - and through a combination of news, in-depth reports and hard-hitting opinion – the publication gives engineers across all sectors early warning on the disruptive technologies, trends and products that will impact their roles; keeps them informed of developments in other areas of engineering and champions all that is great about UK engineering and manufacturing.
Today, at a time of accelerating technological change, when the role of the engineer is broader than ever before and cross sector collaboration is the key to maintaining a competitive edge, The Engineer has never been more relevant.
