Technical at heart
Rapierstar has completed its move to a new 100,000ft2 purpose-designed head office and distribution centre near Congleton, Cheshire.
At the heart of this extensive facility is a purpose-built technical test laboratory and customer information centre, which enables Rapierstar to continually check fasteners and fixings under various types of load occurring in practical use. Fixings are also continually tested for speed of insertion, plating depth, recess fit, accelerated corrosion and other vital performance criteria.
Managing director, David Furness said: “We sell experience and quality – our products are manufactured to our design and to our exacting standards. As well as extra storage capacity ensuring continuity of supply for our customers, the new facility affirms our commitment to quality, putting Rapierstar at the forefront of raising the standards of speciality fasteners.”
