The new site, at the state-of-the-art Hexagon Tower, features advanced facilities, including a cutting-edge laboratory and modern office space. The move marks a significant milestone in company growth and highlights John Hogg’s commitment to technical excellence. It is particularly meaningful as it represents John Hogg’s first expansion since moving to Mellors Road in the early 1980s.

The new facilities will specifically cater to John Hogg’s speciality dye team, with a large emphasis on R&D for new products in the lubricant, aerobatic smoke, and NDT markets. This new workspace will boost work efficiency and development progress, enabling the team to undertake more complex projects for its customers.

In addition to the new laboratory, Hexagon Tower also provides John Hogg with office areas that will support its growing team.

Guy Powell, Technical Manager for the company comments: “John Hogg has had a presence in speciality dyes for many years, so having dedicated resources will expand our product range and level of service that we are able to offer to our customers.

“We are excited to see our team grow in capacity and  capability, and look forward to working in Hexagon Tower on new challenges and opportunities.”
