A family-owned manufacturer has secured a new £500,000 funding package to help it boost production and create jobs.

Weldall provides bespoke welding and fabricated products in aluminium, stainless steel and mild steel to the construction industry.

The Cannock-based business, which recently celebrated its 30th anniversary, was established by two specialist welders and is now run by their sons, working primarily with windows and cladding firms in Birmingham, London and Manchester.

To support growing demand from customers, Weldall has purchased a new Bystronic cutting machine which will triple the speed at which the business can process metal which it said could grow revenue by 15 per cent. It will also allow it to hire four new employees to support the operation of the machinery.

Director Matt O'Farrell said: "We are seeing a significant increase in demand, particularly from contractors which are building apartment and office developments in London, where city expansion is taking place rapidly.

"The new machine will enable us to maximise this opportunity for growth and win new business in the sector. Over the past few years, we've seen the price of metals double.

"The new technological capabilities will enable us to process products more quickly, helping us counteract these rising input costs to continue to deliver value for customers and expand."
