Peter's Wishes for Retirement
Although Peter retired from active involvement in component impregnation in the late 1990s and has now no commercial ties with his old company, he still maintains an interest in future technology.
His burning desire is to see the industry with an effective and usable international quality control standard that will assist both user and supplier alike. To see an excellence in casting impregnation and guiding users on how to get the best from their impregnation equipment.
To this end, he has set up the Institute of Impregnation Technology, which seeks to promote these ends. The Institute's website is at http://www.ioit.org
