Welcome to our world

I’m delighted to introduce you to the inaugural issue of the LoneStar journal (LSJ). This brand-new industry magazine has been expertly collated to elevate our global communications to colleagues, customers and the wider industry alike. By reading what’s inside, it’s my hope that you’ll gain a greater understanding of the LoneStar Group and our global operations. More than this, it’s an opportunity for everyone within our teams to proudly share what sets us apart on the world stage.

In my experience, the phrase ‘market leader ‘is thrown around far too easily. Having said that, it’s my conviction that the LoneStar Group is in a category of one. We’re setting the standard by manufacturing and supplying precision-engineered, high-performance, approved and accredited components with unrivalled agility anywhere on the planet. If ever there was a time to shout about how our world strengthens yours, now is surely it.

So what to expect from the LSJ? Issue one includes an exploration of the UK’s recent strategic defence review, a look into LNG’s ability to power the energy transition, why an engineering apprenticeship matters in 2025, where we’re expanding our cutting-edge facilities and much more.

Most importantly, this issue and all future issues will bring to life how our businesses operate successfully as one LoneStar – a unique, globally integrated powerhouse able to offer unmatched value, speed and expertise to customers worldwide.

Whether you’re reading the digital or print issue, all that’s left to say is thank you for your continued support. I hope to see you soon.

Please enjoy the issue.

RICHARD PICKLES

CEO, LoneStar Group.
