Guttercrest has announced its latest expansion plans with the purchase of a 40,000ft2 facility, which the company says will allow it to offer its customers an enhanced service.
The company plans to install high bay racking storage systems to increase stock levels and improve distribution facilities. In addition, Guttercrest will invest an additional £3m in state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment so that it can further extend its product range of aluminium rainwater products, fascia, soffit and wall coping systems.
Gary Power, managing director of Guttercrest, said: “This is a very exciting time in Guttercrest’s history; the planned expansion will allow us to offer an improved service to our customers and also enable us to manufacture and deliver both our standard and bespoke product ranges rapidly to meet the challenges of today’s fast track construction projects.”
Guttercrest is based in Oswestry, Shropshire and currently operates from a 25,000ft2 manufacturing unit. Work has already begun on the additional site and completion is scheduled for early 2016.
