‘Better bending’ investment
28th March 2017

Quickslide says it is offering a superior finish and faster turnaround on curved and arched frames, with a EUR60,000 investment in a new in-house bending facility.

The Tim-Ing bending centre can produce a curve in as little as ten minutes but also a cooler working temperature makes it more energy efficient, and its automation and 3D cameras gives consistent results with practically zero waste.

Operations Director Ben Weber said: “We already have our own in-house foiling and painting facilities as well as PVC-U and aluminium fabrication. This is a big step forward for us as VS’s are notoriously difficult to work with when it comes to bending profiles, so now to be able to offer consistent and reliable quality in a fraction of the manufacture time gives us another USP within our market place.”

Sales & Marketing Director Tom Swallow added: “Quick turnaround and consistent quality on arched products is what the industry has been in dire need of since I can remember. It is a fantastic opportunity for Quickslide to now be able to offer this service to our trade partners and give them the edge against their competition.”
