The trade fabricator Modplan has completed a new manufacturing extension at its headquarters in Newport, Gwent. The move further boosts Modplan’s manufacturing capacity across its multi-site operation, and is set to accommodate the company’s doorline fabrication.
Heidi Sachs, Modplan’s managing director, said: “We firmly believe in continuous investment in our business. This new doorline extension will open up new opportunities and provide additional capacity to support our long-term growth efforts.”
The new manufacturing centre is equipped with state-of-the-art door fabrication machinery, including a dedicated automated Supercut machine for precision accuracy. Heidi added: “Investing in machine technology helps us deliver the quality we want, as well as maintain competitive turnaround times, even as we grow.”
This current extension follows on from the company’s investment in new trucks, to further support growth in demand for its PVC-U flush sash windows. The buisiness has also opened a training academy, which provides a dedicated space to train personnel across its business, from NVQ level through to management. As well as supporting Modplan’s own staff, the training academy is available to customers, offering both office-based skills development and hands-on fabrication training.
Modplan manufactures a wide range of window, door and conservatory products. Read more about the business online at modplan.co.uk.
