Ibstock’s new £50m Horizon Ceramic Façade manufacturing facility, located on their Nostell site in West Yorkshire, is now moving into the second phase, progressing from a construction site into formal commissioning.
This marks the beginning of operations at the ceramic façade manufacturing facility, with Ibstock aiming to continue to ramp up the commissioning process over the coming months, with full product launch plans underway.
Joe Hudson, CEO of Ibstock Plc, commented: ‘‘Reaching the commissioning stage at Nostell Horizon is a proud moment for our business. It demonstrates our commitment to investing in UK manufacturing and our focus on delivering the products and innovations our customers and communities need.
“The Nostell facility is a powerful expression of Ibstock’s heritage, expertise, and future-facing approach to construction. And in the same period that we enter 200 years at our historic Leicester site, it is fitting that we not only look back at what we have achieved but also look forward from Heritage to Horizon.”
