STUART LEE L.P.R.I.  F.I.M.M.M.   

Technical consultant to the rubber industry.

With more than thirty years experience in the rubber industry, Stuart can help your company to improve its productivity, quality and staff skills, save cost and solve a variety of technical problems. 

tick EXPERIENCE

Most recently Stuart has acted as a project manager and technologist working on high value European and British Government funded research projects. His work has included bone implants, wind turbine blades, condoms and leg ulcer treatments.

Previously, Stuart has worked as a consultant giving technical and sales advice. Areas covered included product development, testing and trouble shooting, sales, purchasing, administration, import (India), export (worldwide) and quality management.

For many years prior to this Stuart was the Technical Director of two small rubber manufacturing companies.  In addition to being responsible for all aspects of production, Stuart has also been responsible for plant and property maintenance, quality, purchasing, health and safety and environmental legislation as well as liaising with customers.

Stuart has managed many major developments using state of the art technology, for example a puncture-proof wheelchair tyre, with the ride comfort and rolling resistance of a traditional pneumatic tyre. Another project was the development of an automotive coolant hose reinforced with short Kevlar fibres instead of braided or woven fabric.

In the past, Stuart has managed many other diverse projects including a steam generation plant, a sewage treatment facility, an integrated dust and fume extraction system and carried out major cost reduction exercises.
