British shower products manufacturer, KUDOS has invested in extra production capacity at its manufacturing site in Cumbria.
The £650,000 investment has seen the installation of a new shower tray production facility to supplement the existing tray manufacturing unit in Coleraine, Northern Ireland. Last year, the company moved its finished goods stock to a new 60,000 sq ft warehouse facility in Sandbach, Cheshire. This released around 25,000 sq ft of space in the Elmsfield Park, Cumbria facility enabling the expansion of its manufacturing capability.
The Cumbrian factory is now largely producing the new SR premium shower tray collection. These trays, available in both the KStone and Connect2 designs, feature a new surface material which is slip, scratch and stain resistant. The slip resistant properties are embedded in the material, rather than a coating of the surface, which means it cannot be removed and, unlike many other anti-slip surfaces, is comfortable underfoot.
