Welcon follows owner Skykon into administration

Wind turbine tower maker Welcon has entered administration, Recharge can confirm, following on the heels of its owner, Denmark's Skykon, which filed for bankruptcy in late December after months spent searching for a lifeline. The future looks grim for workers at Welcon's factory near Campbeltown, Scotland, with rumours suggesting Skykon locked the doors after the holiday due to its inability to pay wages.
