Leading arched and angled frame specialist Premier Arches is now manufacturing more than 150 frames per week from its purpose-built state-of-the-art facility in St Helens, while maintaining its impressive quality and service standards.
The milestone follows a significant £100,000 investment in new machinery earlier this year, including a new copy router, four-head welder, two new ovens, and additional saws and finishing tools at its 10,000ft2 manufacturing facility.
Despite the increased production volumes, Premier Arches continues to deliver outstanding performance metrics, with over 98% OTIF (on time, in full) delivery and an impressive 98.5% ‘right first time’ rate.
Sean Greenall, managing director of Premier Arches, commented: “Reaching over 150 frames while maintaining our high standards of quality and service is a testament to both our strategic investment and our skilled team.
“As the UK’s leading manufacturer of arched and angled frames, we’re committed to taking the complexity out of non-standard designs for our customers and the machinery upgrade at the beginning of the year has significantly enhanced our manufacturing capabilities and efficiency.”
Premier Arches specialises in manufacturing arched, angled, gabled, circular and entirely bespoke window and door frames across various systems, including popular profiles like Residence 9, Rehau and Liniar. The company can manufacture complete products, fabricating both curved sashes and outer frames.
“The Premier Arches model has always been about growth,” added Sean. “As demand continues to increase, we’re already looking at further investment opportunities to enhance our manufacturing capabilities in the future. Our focus remains on delivering exceptional products while maintaining the high levels of service for our customers, so they can expand into more complex designs.”
