About Us

Deacon Innovations is a specialist manufacturing consultancy that help companies to design and deliver automated manufacturing solutions. Small scale manufacturing often present challenges including consistency and scaling issues. Our experience has taught us to understand customer’s unique challenges and tailor the best solutions for any bespoke manufacturing process.

Founder & CEO - Allan Turtle

With over 30 years experience I have a passion for Engineering especially automation on a miniature scale. Over the last ten years I’ve worked as an Engineering Consultant and have successfully set up medically device manufacturing lines, leading all stages of the process. 

Deacon Innovations has been established together with a small team of experts in their field – I believe the best there is. We bring together a network of trusted global partners to support you in your manufacturing journey.

Away from work I’m busy with my three kids, but still enjoy making time for mini road trips.
