Santander UK has provided the manufacturer, based in Rhyl, North Wales, with a £1.3m funding package to support its expansion
The funding supports Plastecowood’s purchase of two additional processing lines, which will triple its output of Smartawood® – a carbon-negative alternative to timber – lumber and assembled products from 2,000 tonnes annually to 6,000 tonnes. In line with this increased manufacturing capacity, the business is targeting an increase in annual turnover from £2.3m currently to £6m-£10m in the next few years. - Recycled plastic wood products business set for growth following funding / Business-money.com 12th May 2022 – click here
