For those who may not have seen it yet the history of British Enkalon and Enkalon Foundation in Antrim is being celebrated at The Junction in Antrim. The display is being shown along with the plans for the £30 million investment in The Junction in the next 5 years. The unit is open to the public at weekends and worth a visit as the old model of the factory, which was in the foyer of the Enkalon offices, is on display having been lovingly restored.
