ERIEZ SUPPORT COMPANY GROWTH WITH THE PURCHASE OF A NEW BUILDING

Eriez Europe Support Company Growth with the Purchase of a New Building Eriez Magnetics Europe Ltd has announced that the company has purchased a 19,000 square foot building located next door to their current premises in Caerphilly, South Wales. Despite the current economic climate, Eriez Europe has continued to show growth. An increased order base has resulted in a heavier manufacturing demand and hence more space required to facilitate this. Purchasing the building (which just happens to be next door to their existing plant) has provided Eriez with the perfect opportunity to expand whilst keeping the manufacturing at one location. This extra space will not only increase Eriez Europe’s manufacturing Side view of the new building Front view of the new building capacity, but will also allow for logistical improvements at the current site. Eriez plan to begin manufacturing in the new building in April 2012. Paul Fears, Managing Director at Eriez Europe commented, “Despite the difficult economic climate, we have been able to continually increase our manufacturing output. To facilitate this growth, it was imperative that we expanded our facility. We have received fantastic support from our headquarters in Erie, USA [Eriez Manufacturing Co.] and this is a clear statement that competitive and successful manufacturing in the UK is a reality.” Eriez Magnetics design and manufacture Magnetic Separation, Metal Detection and Metal Sorting equipment which have application in industries such as recycling, mineral processing and mining.
