The additive manufacturing (AM) sector is at the forefront of innovation, transforming industries from aerospace to healthcare. However, many businesses are not fully capitalising on the financial benefits available through the UK government’s R&D tax credits scheme. These credits are designed to encourage innovation by providing a tax relief on expenses related to research and development activities. Companies can claim back a portion of their investment in qualifying projects, which often includes developing new processes, products, or materials.
One prime example is Signbox, a leader in bespoke signage solutions. By leveraging R&D tax credits with the help of Kene Partners, they were able to reclaim a significant amount of funds spent on developing cutting-edge manufacturing processes. This not only offset their R&D costs but also enabled them to accelerate future projects.
The same opportunities exist for AM companies, where innovations often occur in process development, material experimentation, and product design. Whether your company is 3D-printing parts for industrial machinery or advancing materials science for biomedical devices, R&D tax credits can be a game-changer for your bottom line.
Partnering with specialists like Kene Partners ensures that your business is fully compliant whilst maximising your claim, ensuring you get the full value you’re entitled to. Their expertise has helped businesses like Imageco—a sustainable visual displays company—save significantly, allowing them to continue pioneering green innovations in manufacturing.
In a competitive sector like AM, utilising R&D tax credits is not just an option, but a strategic advantage. Learn more about how Kene Partners can help your business unlock its full innovation potential here.
