Aluminium fabricator Fentrade has taken delivery of an Elumatec TS161/21 Table Saw, with roller conveyors and also added an additional bead station, which will support fabrication of the newly introduced Reynaers CP130 sliding patio range and the Jack Aluminium SD70 Heritage Door.
The machinery investment is being coupled with new staff including three new fabricators in the factory and a part time support role in the office.
Director Chris Reeks said: “The new machinery enhances quality and production flow across the board. It also means we can cut a wider variety of shaped profiles, which will help support the growth we’re experiencing in shaped gable frames on residential extensions.”
He added: “Our success has been built on exceptional products backed up with attentive service on reliable turnaround times. These latest investments will enable us to continue to meet these demanding standards, even as we continue to grow.”
The company works with trade and retail customers throughout Wales and the West and along the M4, M5 and M6 corridors. It partners with brands such as AluK and VBH Greenteq manufacturing aluminium windows, doors, bifolds, inline sliders, GFT commercial screens, shopfronts and curtain walling products.
