UP to 25 jobs are expected to be created at a fast-expanding company, thanks to support from Business Link North Yorkshire.
Analox Sensor Technology, which designs and manufactures gas sensors and analysers, is moving its research and development department at Stokesley Industrial Park to nearby Trentham Grange, to allow its manufacturing capacity to be expanded.
Analox, which employs 35, has won a Smart award from the Department of Trade and Industry to finance a study into the possibility of creating a low-cost infra-red system to detect a variety of gases.
The firm received guidance on how to secure the award from Business Link North Yorkshire's innovation and technology advisor, Roger Benson.
The company supplies a wide range of industries, including hospitality and leisure and the medical profession. It expects its advanced new system to be able to detect carbon monoxide in homes, flammable products on oil rigs and ammonia on pig and poultry farms.
Managing director Alan Harbottle said: "These are exciting times at Analox. If things go to plan, we expect to create around 25 manufacturing jobs by next March."
