Offsite Solutions Wins Manufacturer of the Year Award
Offsite Solutions, the UK's leading bathroom pod manufacturer, has won the Manufacturer of the Year Award at the Made in the South West Awards.
These annual awards showcase manufacturing excellence across the South West and celebrate the commitment of the region's businesses to achieving world-class quality and performance. Companies are represented from a diverse range of industries, from aerospace and building products to food and drink brands, and the winners go forward to the national Made in the UK Awards.
Offsite Solutions was presented with the award for Manufacturer of the Year (under £25m turnover) at a ceremony at the Grand Hotel in Bristol. This category assessed manufacturing excellence, sales growth and regional economic impact. The judges commented on the spread of sectors that Offsite Solutions is flourishing in - from residential and student accommodation to healthcare and hotels, and its £5m factory investment programme which is now underway.
Commenting on this latest accolade, James Stephens, Managing Director of Offsite Solutions said, "We are absolutely thrilled to receive this recognition for our business. It is testament to the hard work and talent of our teams across the company, but particularly in the factory. Everyone has worked tirelessly to make the company the success it is today. We are proud to be leading the market in UK bathroom pod manufacture and to be helping our clients across the country to radically improve the speed, quality and efficiency of bathroom construction."
"We are committed to innovation and to investing in state-of-the-art production facilities in Highbridge which will enable us to continue to offer the very best quality bathroom pod products in the market. We are looking forward to taking the business to the next level in its success."
Offsite Solutions is the leading and longest established bathroom pod manufacturer in the UK, supplying over 10,000 ensuite pods every year to major contractors and developers from its head office and production centres in Highbridge, Somerset. In 2018, it will manufacture its 90,000th pod.
The company was bought in 2004 by its current owners. Since then turnover has grown from £2m per annum to around £25m per annum. It currently has a record order book of over £50m.
Offsite Solutions now has three factories Highbridge and is in the process of a major expansion programme to increase capacity to meet the rising demand for its products. It recently announced a £5m investment programme to expand its production facilities - the biggest expansion programme in the history of the company.
