history of The Heath
The Heath was originally an ICI facility, designed for the bulk chemistry industry when it was built in 1962. It is now a major centre of employment and enterprise in the Halton area, owned and operated by SOG Ltd, the former ICI Site Operations Group.
Residents of The Heath benefit from over 40 years experience of operating and managing a major site and this has resulted in huge success, which has been praised by politicians and captains of industry alike.
"This is what the future of the UK economy is about. It is about constant change and adaptation. It is about investment in science, technology and skills. This is the type of project that in different parts of the country needs to be replicated and is one of the reasons we wanted to come here today"
former Prime Minister Tony Blair during a visit to The Heath in April 2005
"This is one of the best examples I know of regeneration of this kind"
former Science and Innovation Minister Lord Sainsbury
"It is heartening to see how The Heath Business and Technical Park has evolved and how large numbers of people are back working here. I'm so pleased The Heath is not only surviving but thriving."
Sir John Harvey-Jones MBE
