The centre is equipped with technology such as gas-heated paint boxes associated with ATEX (explosive atmosphere) areas and an auditorium for presentations.

Craig Daycock, managing director of Mirka UK, says, “The goal is to have at least 1500 people a year participating in Mirka Academy training courses and workshops”
