Veolia Nuclear Solutions expands space at Birchwood Park

We are pleased to announce the expansion of Veolia Nuclear Solutions (VNS), part of the Veolia Group, into a new office space at the Park.

The expansion sees VNS move into a larger, more modern space at 401 Faraday St, to accommodate its growing team and expand its delivery of advanced nuclear technologies and services.

VNS’s expertise lies in developing and advancing remote and autonomous handling technologies through focused research and development, delivering innovative engineering solutions for the industry’s most demanding challenges.

With 25 years in the nuclear industry and more than 200 technological innovations – including the Dexter telemanipulation system and the GeoMelt vitrification process – VNS is transforming nuclear operations in the UK and worldwide.

The new space positions VNS at the heart of the UK nuclear industry, enabling direct engagement with key industry players and creating opportunities for joint initiatives.

The move underscores the business’ commitment to growth and its investment in the UK’s clean energy future.

Jon Halladay, Managing Director at Veolia Nuclear Solutions UK, said: “We’re delighted to join the Birchwood Park campus, which is recognised as a centre of nuclear excellence. Our move to these new premises accommodates our expanding team and reinforces our commitment to the nuclear sector in the North West.

We look forward to being part of this dynamic business community and proudly supporting the UK’s nuclear industry across technology innovations, new-build programmes, decommissioning and waste management.”

Martin O’Rourke, our Commercial Director at Birchwood Park, commented: “Veolia Nuclear Solutions is a fantastic example of the world-class nuclear expertise located here at Birchwood Park, and we’re pleased to support them with their move.”

“VNS’s presence and commitment to growth at Birchwood Park highlights the Park’s role as a vital hub for the nuclear sector, offering businesses a collaborative environment for innovation. We look forward to supporting them as they continue to grow and seeing their continued success.”

The expansion is a sign of confidence in our offering – not only regarding on-site facilities, but in the access it provides to the region’s vital nuclear cluster.
