A Year of Progress at Marantec UK
Here’s a look at what we’ve achieved in just one year:
Moved into a new and improved building
Our move to a new 40,000 square foot facility marked a major step forward for Marantec UK. The upgraded space reflects our growth and ambition, providing a more modern, efficient environment for both our team and our customers. Here are some of the ways we’ve enhanced our operations since the move:
More Room to Grow
With expanded office space, our team now benefits from a more comfortable and collaborative working environment. The larger footprint also allows us to welcome new team members as we continue to grow.
Boosted Production Capacity
We’ve added 10 new workbenches to our manufacturing area, increasing our ability to meet demand and deliver high-quality automation solutions. And there’s more to come - new machinery is on the way. Keep an eye on our website and social media for updates as we continue to invest in our production capabilities.
