Zeeko has worked hard to establish itself as a viable business and, having learned some of the skills needed to survive and prosper, it has more recently developed a number of ideas for ways in which the business and the product base can grow laterally across sectors, thus protecting the business in times of market slow-down.
With machines now installed throughout the world, Zeeko has become a global success story and the involvement with the UK Trade Mission to NASA will lead to the development in the manufacturing of astronomical optics and in particular the complex optical surfaces being specified for the new generation of segmented telescopes.
Both in its polishing technology and in its measurement techniques, Zeeko has been a key innovator in the development of processes that in the coming years will be relied upon by at least a part of the astronomical community.
