Cotswold Architectural Products, part of the global Caldwell Group, says it has rolled out a ‘major’ capital investment that will enhance its production capabilities and continue to support British manufacturing and jobs.

Cotswold has invested £170k in the automation of a flow-line at its headquarters in Cheltenham; a move which it says which will increase its productivity and allow it to increase capacity by 15%.

According to Cotswold, this is the first step to introducing more automation onto the factory floor, with a view to potentially introducing a fully automated factory.

Tim Ferkin, sales and marketing director at Cotswold, commented: “This latest capital investment is significant as it means we can offer our customers an even better service and remain at the very cutting edge of hardware manufacturing. It also ensures we keep high-skilled jobs in the UK and continue to invest to be the best.

“This new machinery and factory re-fit will make our service even better, and lead times even faster for our customers. Because we will be able to do more; our customers will be able to do more and we will continue to push the boundaries of lean manufacturing and product development,” Tim concluded.
