TESTIMONIALS

The professionalism, courtesy and attention to detail afforded to us by MedTec as our project developed is more than we expected. The quality of the design work, integration with our technical guys and delivery of production ready drawings is first class and delivered on time and on budget. We will be using MedTec again and again as you share our vision of good customer service and all this on the Isle of Wight too!

We worked with Dan from MedTec to create some CGI’s for our marketing materials, sales brochures and website. The result is a great portfolio of images which we are really happy with and we would certainly use Dan again in the future.
Charlotte PacyPriory Asset Management LLP
Dan was very helpful, efficient and offered advice and guidance on our design – I could not fault him. The work was completed quickly and on time and was of a high standard. I highly recommend Dan Carley and MedTec.
Clare GriffinWest Wight Sports & Community Centre
We have been very impressed by the level of quality of design work from MedTec so far. Dan grasped our needs quickly and produced results exactly to our requirements and to the quality we were promised. Any modifications have been completed within a timely manner and with an attention to detail. Needless to say, we are extremely satisfied with the results.
Mark OsmanHeatstar Ltd
What a pleasure it has been dealing with Medtec with our new project. We have never required CAD services before and both Chris and Dan made the whole experience simple friendly and not the daunting challenge we had envisaged. Our meetings with them have been first class with infinite patience and enthusiasm being shown by the Medtec team in encouraging us and giving us confidence to design with them and in doing so realise the hidden potential the new job. Communication has been first class in both directions with Chris being quick to deal with any concerns we had both large and small.

MedTec have successfully carried out design and modification work for lifeboat transport/workshop cradle, with associated design work on a working at height safety handrail for the RNLI Inshore lifeboat Centre. The work package included managing fabrication of modification and handrail component parts, all delivered within in a tight timescale, within budget and to RNLI requirements. This involved working closely locally with the RNLI Inshore Lifeboat Centre and engineering based at the RNLI Poole Support Centre to deliver this solution for the RNLI’s Thames lifeboat refit project.

Elliott Group has worked with Medtec to develop a storage/transportation rack for handling compressor diaphragms in response to our market's demand for a safe method for handling such items. We found Medtec to be responsive and proactive with the development of the racks throughout the design stage, advising what was practical within the constraints given to them and again throughout manufacture until the point of delivery they ensured the finished product met our requirements both in terms of specification and also documentation and certification, which was an essential element of the project.

ANDREW DURRELL

MedTec - Meet The Team - Andrew

My Dad was one of the founding partners of MedTec, so I grew up in this technical engineering environment, which I naturally always had an interest in. I ended up doing an apprenticeship with MedTec at age 16, combined with a day release engineering course at the Isle of Wight College. I’ve come and gone from the business over the years, in various engineering roles, but been back with MedTec since 2012.

I have spent most of my career working in wind energy, helping one of the world leaders in the field design more efficient and advanced wind turbine blades. People often see wind turbines spinning away generating electricity but underestimate the amount of design work that has gone into the blades, the components inside, the processes involved in making them and the amount of complex technology going on beneath the surface. It’s a competitive industry where things are constantly evolving, there are plenty of challenges to keep me busy and the fact I’m working in green energy makes me happy.

I enjoy the diverse mix of work that comes through the door, we’ve taken on some really interesting projects over the years, from the big global companies to the small one man bands, the variety of work and people you meet along the way means it rarely gets boring.

Working for a small company like MedTec means you get treated like an individual, not simply a resource. We’re a friendly professional team and it’s a great environment to quickly pick up new skills and experience.

We’ve got a really great team of staff here, and we are planning on building up our numbers this year. I believe that if we continuously improve our capabilities and the services we offer, as well as keeping our regular customers happy, we will win new clients, enabling us expand the business and our numbers.
