Green initiative pays dividends as Storage Solutions shelving manufacturing operations reduces gas consumption by 60%.

The Storage Solutions team were celebrating after profits were given a healthy boost by introducing a wide range of environmentally friendly measures at the Torrington site. Peter Sully said "Most of the changes cost just a few pounds to introduce and probably paid back the same day. This is clearly good for business and for the environment." Some of the changes have made very real improvements to productivity and low bake powder coating technology has improved productivity.

The company now plans further initiatives and will progressively upgrade the systems to further improve efficiency and is aiming for an additional 20% saving in the coming months.

September 2007

Warehousing operations will be merged over the coming months, combining all storage at a single distribution centre in Torrington benefiting from lower costs.

The strategic changes brought about by the set up of the manufacturing operation are expected to be complete by December 07 ready for when efforts will be switched to grow the manufacturing and projects business for 2008.

November 2007

Storage Solutions announces record turnover and profits at August year end. With turnover more than doubled against three years ago and the introduction of a manufacturing operation, 2007 is a whirlwind year.

The manufacturing operation is moving ahead of target and this major investment has been financed without the need of additional borrowing. The new division will soon be split from the main business to operate on its own two feet and is expected to be profitable in year one with introduction of efficient working practices and new products.
