Dedicated bi-fold factory opens

PR146 - TWR factoryA new 25,000ft2 factory, reportedly one of the biggest dedicated bi-folding doors operations in the UK, has opened its doors.

The opening of the new factory is said to represent a major milestone for family run TWR Bifolds and re-affirms its commitment to be the number one aluminium bi-fold supplier in the industry. The company says that the factory has been fitted out with state of the art machinery required for the production of aluminium bi-folds.

The site in Peterlee, County Durham, is in addition to TWR’s long-standing headquarters and original factory in Sunderland. According to TWR, it is a major investment that has ‘significantly increased’ its manufacturing capacity.

Managing director, Terry Richardson, commented: “Demand for aluminium bi-folds has skyrocketed – particularly in the domestic market – and shows no signs of slowing down. We have seen a year on year increase of orders and we felt the time was right to kick our manufacturing up a gear.

“The investment shows we are serious about growth and our customer’s growth and we can now manufacture and supply increased volumes of quality aluminium bi-folds on an incredibly fast lead time.”

Earlier this year, TWR Bifolds launched a new premium fast-track service, offering installers a three working day turnaround on aluminium bi-fold doors, subject to conditions. The company also recently expanded its range with the addition of Synseal’s WarmCore system.

“TWR is an established brand in the bi-fold market and with a series of investments across the business we can continue to offer installers the very latest, cutting edge products, quick lead times and complete support only a dedicated and experienced manufacturer can provide,” concluded Terry.
