National Timber Systems (NTS), the engineered wood products division of National Timber Group, is to open a new 70,000 sq ft manufacturing site at Wolverhampton, England.
The multi-million pound investment will create one of NTS’s largest manufacturing sites and over 100 jobs.
The division currently supplies housebuilders, developers and the modular sector nationally from their four sites across the country at Sheffield, Catterick, Newcastle and Bristol. It has a turnover of almost GBP 50 million ($62.5 million) and employs 240 people in total.
Nick Kershaw, Managing Director of NTS said: “With the new site at Wolverhampton we are strengthening our geography towards having a true national footprint with sites in Yorkshire, the North East, South West and now the Midlands.
“It also signals a step-change in our manufacturing capability to service the increased level of customer demand generally and for our ranges of new and innovative products.
“A number of different engineered wood products will be manufactured at Wolverhampton. Turnover from this site alone is expected to exceed GBP 20 million ($25 million). We will start recruiting soon and the site will be fullyoperational later this year.”
NTS is a leading supplier of engineered timber and off-site construction products.
