As part of their £15 million investment, global manufacturers of wood-based materials, Egger, recently contracted us to construct a brand new welfare facility for the staff working in their recycling plant in Hexham, Northumberland.
Egger is a steadily growing, family company that was founded in Austria back in 1961. They are known for offering some of the most versatile, sustainable, and affordable wood-based products available on the market.
The Hexham plant is responsible for sourcing waste wood for the company’s chipboard production sites that supply materials to businesses across the UK. The plant is responsible for creating around 50% of the UK’s chipboard.
The site is one of only two Egger manufacturing plants in the UK and is a major employer in the Northumberland area.
The project started back in June, and we are currently finishing the construction of the complete in-situ frame with steel cladding for the facility.
We began the work on a set 20-week programme, with an overall aim of completing the job in line with the client's schedule.
The project is now close to completion with the expectation of being completed on time and on budget. We are pleased with the progress we have been able to make on the facility over the past few months and are looking forward to seeing the final result.
Stay tuned for further updates.
