Privately-owned logistics provider, The Canute Group, has expanded its medical services division with a move to a larger facility in Wokingham.
Canute International Medical Services (CIMS) has moved into a 38,000 ft2 depot, purpose built for the previous occupants, which it says will provide ‘first-class accommodation’ to develop its expanding operation. CIMS provides turnkey solutions to the diagnostic imaging industry, offering specialist services including transportation, engineering, warehousing, remarketing, and installation of diagnostic medical equipment. The division also builds and refurbishes imaging suites using traditional and modular methods, installs new equipment, and de-installs surplus equipment, which it then sells or disposes of in line with WEEE regulations. The new facility, with 20 per cent more space than the previous premises, features ‘state-of-the-art’ warehousing, to enable CIMS to cater for a wider client base from across the NHS and private healthcare sectors. Guy Pomroy, director, explained: “CIMS now has a much improved location, which caters for the growing needs of our customers throughout the UK, Europe, North America, Asia, and the rest of the world.”
