On the working reconstruction [[Mayer Schreiber]] is [[Yisrol Meir Schreiber]], born 1993, Westminster, mother’s maiden name Orgel, son of [[David Schreiber]] and [[Miriam Schreiber]] (née [[Orgel]]). A park spokesman has told the press the estate had no connection to the tenant [[Instro Precision]].

[[DP Instro Limited]] was incorporated as Discovery Park Eight Limited. Dissolved names on the same stack include [[Discovery Park Utilities Limited]] (11125244, 16 March 2021), [[Discovery Park Three Limited]] (10649230, 22 September 2020), [[DP 819 Limited]] (10649216) and [[DP PDF Limited]] (10649267). [[Discovery Park (Instro) Limited]] (10006590) and [[Discovery Park (Lakeside) Limited]] (10007015) were dissolved on 18 July 2017 from a Billingham address.<ref name="CHInstro">Companies House, [https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/10649248 DP INSTRO LIMITED], company 10649248.</ref>

== Instro Precision ==
[[Instro Precision]] occupies a factory on the park and has said the plant supports the British Army with electro-optical and night-vision equipment. [[Palestine Action]] treats it as a wholly owned subsidiary of [[Elbit Systems]].<ref name="BBC24">Emily Coady-Stemp, [https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cw44epnrzkpo Sandwich: Seven arrests at Palestine Action protest at factory], BBC News, 17 June 2024.</ref>

== Raids and protests ==
* '''17 June 2024.''' Kent Police were called shortly before 03:30. At the Old Bailey in October 2026, prosecutor Anne Whyte KC said a black team was to overwhelm security guards and a red team to enter the building; that guard [[Billy Dennis]] saw figures at the fence at 03:20; and that one guard was sprayed with red paint and another’s Land Rover was smashed with him inside. Nine defendants are on trial.<ref name="BBC">Nathan Bevan, [https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cjzxlvpy7d3yo Palestine Action planned raid to 'smash up' factory in Sandwich, court hears], BBC News, 6 October 2026.</ref>
* '''9 September 2024.''' Five people sprayed red paint on the lobby, a security booth and a pedestrian entrance. Damage was put at about £15,000. In June 2026 a Canterbury jury acquitted [[Claire Garcia]], [[Christy North]], [[Tea Southwell]], [[Jay Smith]] and [[Reverie Menniss]]. The court was told Instro was not a tenant of the building that was painted.<ref name="KO26">''KentOnline'', [https://www.kentonline.co.uk/sandwich/news/five-acquitted-over-15-000-red-paint-protest-at-kent-defenc-341644/ Five acquitted over £15,000 red paint protest], 18 June 2026.</ref>
* '''May 2026.''' [[Arms Embargo From Below]] said about 200 people gathered outside Instro. Kent Police made no arrests.<ref name="KOMay">''KentOnline'', [https://www.kentonline.co.uk/sandwich/news/police-called-as-200-activists-attempt-to-shut-down-kent-fac-340760/ Police called as 200 activists attempt to shut down Instro], 26 May 2026.</ref>

== Security ==
Court reports name guards, a security booth and [[Billy Dennis]]. They do not name the employer. [[Marc One Security Limited]] (12575629, incorporated 28 April 2020) and [[Marc One Security (Kent) Ltd]] (15091372) and [[Marc One Security Services Ltd]] (15091286), both incorporated 23 August 2023 with director [[Charlene Williams]], use Fleete Court Farm, Manston, and a Sandwich registered office at Innovation House, Ramsgate Road, CT13 9FF, care of [[Kreston Reeves]]. Innovation House is on the park. That is an accountant’s address, not a contract.<ref name="CHMarc">Companies House, [https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/12575629 MARC ONE SECURITY LIMITED], company 12575629.</ref>
