Invest in Wiltshire grant helps Oz-UK Ltd to grow

Wiltshire Council's Invest in Wiltshire grants, funded by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, have enabled leading Meditech research organisation Oz-UK to grow its operations and install state-of-the-art equipment.   

The company specialises in the development and manufacturing of pressurised metered dose inhalers and liquid aerosols. It received £120,602 as part of the Invest in Wiltshire grants to purchase the equipment and improve its business. The funding has played a vital role in enabling the business to enhance its research and development capabilities, solidifying its position as a world leader in sustainable drug delivery solutions.

The grant has also enabled Oz-UK to significantly improve efficiency, enhance its workforce's skills and foster innovation. The new equipment and facilities have streamlined processes, optimized workflows, and boosted the company's responsiveness to client and healthcare sector needs.

Cllr Richard Clewer, Leader of Wiltshire Council, said: We're delighted to see the significant positive impact that the Invest in Wiltshire grant, funded by UKSPF, has had on Oz-UK Ltd.

This is a prime example of how targeted investments can drive growth, improve operational efficiency and enhance local job opportunities for people and companies in Wiltshire. It's exciting to see how Oz-UK is already using this funding to contribute to the pharmaceutical industry.

A key priority in our Business Plan is to have a thriving economy and by supporting our local businesses and their investments, we play a vital role in driving economic growth within Wiltshire.

Dr David A Lewis, Co-founding Director of Oz-UK Limited, said: We're grateful for the support of Wiltshire Council and their dedicated team in making this possible.

Our long-standing presence in Wiltshire reflects our commitment to the region. We're dedicated to making great products that improve patients' quality of life across the UK and the world. Our recent partnership with Bespak, UK underscores our dedication to innovation and sustainability in respiratory healthcare.
