MRT to expand
Humber UK based Marine Rescue Technologies (MRT) is targeting UK and global markets after an ambitious multi-million pound expansion and investment.
The company manufactures specialist man overboard monitoring, alerting and tracking systems and has invested in new manufacturing and assembly facilities and offices, increasing its suite of products, and its employee numbers in the process.
Mobilarm bought MRT in 2011 from David Marshall, who founded the business in 1974 in the aftermath of the Gaul trawler tragedy.
The majority of product components are manufactured in the UK and assembled on site in Beverley with specialised software also written locally. Life jackets are manufactured by a UK specialist and designed to integrate with MRT’s range of beacons.
