Since founding the company in 1988, Ian Pearson has been integral behind Orbital Fabrications’ success. After over 35 years of dedicated service, Ian will be stepping down from his role as Chairman in August, and embarking on the next chapter of his life, which we hope will be filled with the opportunities and adventures that retirement brings.

Ian’s unwavering and dedicated service have been an inspiration to the entire team at Orbital Fabrications, and we will miss him hugely. Ian recently sat down to talk about Orbital Fabrications as well as his journey with the company, which you can watch here. We have previously shared about Ian’s passion for racing, which you can read about here, so we hope his retirement, whether that involves driving round the race track, travelling, or relaxing, is enjoyable.

The team have put together a video wishing Ian all the best, which you can view below:
