TuffX has invested £500,000 to add two more production lines at its Knowsley factory.

A third laminating line has been installed to meet demand for laminated glass. The Sagertec glass laminating machine will allow TuffX to boost its output, demand for which has increased over the last few years due to the growing popularity of glass balustrades and balconies in both commercial and residential properties.

Components of a third double-glazing line have also been purchased and recently installed. This will boost factory efficiency and production capacity of the Infinity range of products and Ambience conservatory glass. 

The two new additional production lines are part of TuffX’s wider planned schedule of investment for 2022. This includes a substantial factory extension currently underway and due to be completed early next year, along with other recent machinery purchases, recruitment of more staff and new additions to the TuffX vehicle fleet.

“Continuing demand for modern, light and airy homes and commercial spaces means our specialist glass solutions for balustrades and balconies as well as our range of infinity roof lights and roof glass just keeps growing,” said commercial director Paul Higgins.

“With these latest new lines to boost our output, we’re building on our consistent track record of investments in recent years to ensure we continue to give our customers the efficient, high-quality and reliable service they know to expect when they come to us.”
