Retronix, which is also creating ten additional jobs, said the two contracts had been dependent on an investment of £400,000 to purchase a new high-tech laser to undertake the work more efficiently.
The firm is projecting additional turnover of £3.8 million over the next two years, and the investment will allow it to target more international work. It is being supported by a regional selective assistance grant from Scottish Enterprise worth £99,000.
