Mesh Acquisition

Naylor’s permanent formwork product, Novoform, comprises a lightweight wrapped mesh product used in groundworks & sub-structures work; the product is manufactured at Gainsborough by our Naylor Technical Solutions (formerly Schauenburg) business. Mesh production has now been brought in-house following the acquisition of equipment from former mesh supplier BRC; installation of the mesh plant was completed in mid-January. Recruitment & training are progressing with a view to the plant running flat out from May onwards. Gainsborough Managing Director Chris Simpson commented, “our Novoform product has seen significant growth over recent years because it is cost-effective & easy to use, and the establishment of an in-house mesh facility is a logical next step in developing the business”.
