New Building!
Work finally began on our new label production facility on Mackenzie Industrial Park last Monday after a 3 month delay (steel shortages apparently!) The new factory will open in September and will house all our label production machinery from both the existing Stockport and Congleton sights.
The factory will be split into 3 parts, digital, flexo & conversion in the middle and will be streamlined to ensure efficient workflow. New offices to house production, sales and admin are also planned and the main Windmill office will move to the new building. The plan for the whole business is that we will have two separate cost centres for tapes & labels with tape production continuing at the Unit 6 factory.
With a lot of the focus on labels we are not neglecting the tape side of our business. We have seen some growth in this area since the turn of the year and key staff members intend to stay at Unit 6 to ensure we continue to develop & grow in the adhesive tape market.
