Sales Boost Provides Perfect 'Home Warming' Present For Hague Fasteners

Construction News Image
One of the UK's leading manufacturers of non-standard fasteners has celebrated moving into its new home by securing a string of new contracts.

Hague Fasteners, which has recently been awarded ISO9001:2015, is on course for a record year after winning £300,000 of work to supply specialist products to the oil and gas, petrochemical and growing construction sectors.

The 25% surge in orders comes at a perfect time for the Black Country business after it completed a move to a larger factory in Willenhall, a move that more than triples its production capacity to 8,500 sq ft.

Located on Monmer Close, the new premises has benefitted from significant investment on installing purpose built offices and conference rooms, new flooring in the workshop and creation of a dedicated inspection and despatch area.

Jon Hague, Chief Executive Officer, who runs the firm with his wife Claire, said: "We had reached bursting point at our old site so knew 2017 was always going to be the year we made a move.

"It took us over six months to find the right place, but as soon as we saw it we knew the location was ideal, giving us more space to take on new clients and the ability to plan the layout down to the finest detail."

He continued: "Our factory now boasts more CNC machines and is laid out in cells to help improve efficiency. This is just the start, we've got exciting plans to add further new technology to the shopfloor and expect to take on six new people between now and the end of the year – some of whom could be apprentices."

Hague Fasteners was formed in 1971 by the late John Hague (the father of the current MD) and has been manufacturing in the Black Country for more than four decades.

The company produces specialist fasteners, headed bolts, studs, nuts and milled components in a wide range of high integrity materials and critical nickel alloys.
