Cardiff-based aluminium fabricator Dudley’s Aluminium will assist in the construction of Aston Martin’s new Formula 1 facility at Silverstone.
Dudley’s Aluminium will be working with SDC Builders Ltd on the project and install Kawneer doors and capped curtain walling.
The 400,000 square foot facility will house the Aston Martin team’s design, manufacturing and marketing resource, as well as the team’s first ever wind tunnel and a state-of-the art simulator.
Wind tunnels are used in Formula 1 during car development to analyse the efficiency of different components and achieve the right aerodynamic balance and the simulator allows drivers and technicians to set up cars for every track on the F1 calendar.
