Applied Kilovolts's new premises were officially opened last week by local MP Peter Bottomley.
The ceremony and following reception were attended by over 50 staff, customers and representatives from the UK and the USA.
Located in Goring by Sea, UK, the newly refurbished 570 square metre building houses the company's manufacturing facilities and office suites.
"The new premises will enable us to operate more efficiently, and give us room to expand," said managing director Kevin Wheelhouse.
"We have already taken on four new members of staff, and have another new employee joining us next month".
Applied Kilovolts manufactures precision high voltage power supplies.
These modular units are used to power specialist instruments such as mass spectrometers and low power X-ray machines, and are exported to Europe and the USA.
Operating in the 1kV to 60kV range, their extremely low ripple and highly stable output are essential to enable the highest accuracies in scientific instruments such as mass spectrometers, electron guns, photomultiplier tubes, microchannel plates, electrostatic lenses and low power X-ray equipment.
The main applications for these precision power modules are in mass spectroscopy and low power X-ray machines, with the latter being increasingly used in monitoring fill levels in food production, as well as medical diagnostics.
