G-DECK has delivered a £1 million investment plan to increase capacity, reduce lead times and underpin quality assurance, as the company continues to grow.
Thanks to high demand, G-DECK has invested in a second factory and a state-of-the-art laser fibre Kimla Power Cut machine. The investment programme will dramatically increase the company’s output capacity, ensuring production remains cost-effective and lead times remain short, as demand continues to increase.
The new factory brings G-DECK’s total manufacturing operations to 80,000sq ft, along with 72,000sq ft of office, fabrication and stockholding accommodation at the company’s headquarters in Leicester.
Meanwhile, the new Kimla Power Cut machine will enable precision cutting of metal G-DECK components up to 10 times faster than before, enabling the company to increase the volume of products produced, maintain short lead times and provide exacting standards of quality assurance.
Commenting on the developments, Ty Wilson, sales director of G-DECK, said: “Demand is high for all our three systems because they combine high safety standards with ease and speed of installation.
“We are committed to ensuring our customers receive the products they need on-site, on time so, as we continue to grow, we’re reinvesting in the business to keep that promise and maintain the quality standards that have made us first choice for so many construction contractors, housebuilders and scaffolding companies.”
He added: “Having built a reputation for quality, service and innovation, we are now focused on how we maintain those standards, while scaling up production to meet demand. The new factory and machine are now fully commissioned, and we have an efficient logistics operation to bring the product to the UK market, enabling us to supply customers quickly and efficiently.”
