Since entering the market, Smartroof has revolutionised roof construction in the housing sector with their innovative roof panel system that can be installed in hours, not days.
The Cwmbran facility is Smartroof’s second manufacturing base with the UK headquarters and primary manufacturing facility located in Swadlincote, Midlands. This exciting new venture will allow Smartroof to better service their customer base in the Southern regions of the UK, whilst also creating 20 new jobs in the Torfaen County Borough Council area.
To date Smartroof has invested £150k in a factory fit out and production equipment for their new facility. A further £160k of capital expenditure will be invested throughout 2016 to help the company meet the growing demand for their products.
Peter Nordon, Smartroof Managing Director, commented: “We are very excited to announce this significant investment to expand and advance our manufacturing capabilities in the southern region of the UK. As well as bringing new jobs to the area this facility will help Smartroof to better serve their customers.”
Smartroof plan to grow the business in Cwmbran and create a second production line for their new product: floor cassettes. There will also be Research and Development carried out in Cwmbran to create new innovative products which will further increase sales and the workforce in the area.
