Business in Irvine

Irvine was designated a new town and built an economy around chemicals, pharmaceuticals and light manufacturing, much of which continues, with distribution using the A78 and A71 and a retail centre serving north Ayrshire. The harbourside has been redeveloped. Because it was planned, the industrial estates were laid out with services in mind. Pharmaceutical and chemical manufacturing here brings regulatory and audit expectations that the surrounding retail and distribution economy does not.

Sectors we work with around Irvine

Irvine — common questions

We manufacture under regulatory oversight in Irvine. Where does IT come into it?

Mostly in documentation and control. Segmented networks, monitored firewalls, access controlled and reviewed rather than shared, and records of configuration. Where a regulator or a customer names a standard we build to it rather than interpret it, and we want sight of the requirement early rather than at the point of assessment.

How good is provision on a planned Ayrshire estate?

Generally better than the surrounding area, because ducting and routes were part of the original layout — lead times tend to be shorter than in older towns nearby. It still varies by unit, particularly where estates have been subdivided since, so it is worth checking the address rather than the estate name.

Our Irvine plant is on one of the industrial estates. Is connectivity actually available there?

It varies by unit rather than by estate, which is why the answer comes from checking the specific address. Where fibre is present the install may still involve civil works; where it is not, a 5G circuit is usually deliverable in days and works as a genuine primary connection. We would give you both options with real timescales rather than only the one we would prefer to sell.
