The Challenge

An outdated site that the team could not update

Amba Dockside Technology Ltd supplies and refurbishes drivetrain components for port terminals, reach stackers and ship-to-shore cranes across the UK and worldwide. Their old website no longer matched the quality of their engineering.

The site was slow, looked dated and could not be updated without calling a developer. New product listings, case news and technical updates all sat in a queue, which meant the site was always behind the business.

The brief was clear: a cleaner, modern, faster site that the Amba team could manage themselves, with room for a product catalogue and a blog section.

What needed to change

  • Dated design that did not reflect the brand
  • Slow page loads and poor mobile experience
  • No way to add or edit products in-house
  • No blog or news section for updates
  • Every change relied on external help

The Solution

The Dockside Modernisation Project

PCs Unlimited rebuilt the site from the ground up with a modern stack, a clean design and an easy content management system.

Modern, responsive design

A crisp, professional layout that works smoothly on desktop, tablet and mobile, with fast loading and clear navigation.

Self-managed product catalogue

The Amba team can now add, edit and categorise products themselves, complete with images, descriptions and specifications.

Integrated blog

A built-in blog section lets Amba publish news, technical updates and project highlights without touching code.

Performance tuned

Optimised images, lean code and fast hosting give visitors a snappy experience and a solid score on performance audits.

The Result

A site the team is proud to share

The new Amba Dockside website went live within two weeks of the first workshop. It now loads faster, looks more professional and, most importantly, can be kept up to date by the Amba team without needing a developer for every small change.

The product catalogue is ready to grow with their range, and the blog gives them a platform to share technical expertise and company news. The feedback from customers and partners has been overwhelmingly positive.

"PCs Unlimited understood exactly what we needed. The new site is cleaner, faster and finally gives us control over our products and news. We went from brief to launch in two weeks, and the result speaks for itself."
