Frame Fast UK has invested £610,000 in a new Schirmer cutting and machining centre to meet the rise in demand for windows and doors post-lockdown.
Director Nigel Leivers said: “As the machine can produce 700 frames a week, lifting our total capacity to 1000 a week, we can support our customers secure more jobs and beat the competition with fast turnaround times as the industry continues to experience heavy demand.”
The new machine is the most recent installation in Frame Fast’s 55,000 sqft manufacturing facility in Derby, which also includes aluminium, roofing and glass divisions. The investment comes as Frame Fast launches a new Elite brand of range of windows, doors, conservatory roofs and glass.
“Elite by Frame Fast offers five star choice, five star service, five star security, five star manufacturing and five star quality, so installers can choose the best products for their customers,” Nigel concluded.
