National Manufacturing Week

Last week was National Manufacturing Week🔧!

In light of this, we want to showcase our favourite UK-made products that we offer! Due to the UK’s higher regulation standards, products are made to the highest quality possible, improving reliability tenfold.

Why is purchasing UK-manufactured products so important?💂

  • Reduce carbon footprint 🌱: Purchasing items that are made in the UK reduces the need to import products from abroad. In turn, this helps reduce the amount of pollution expelled into the atmosphere, helping us become more sustainable as a result.
  • Maintain skills 👷: Choosing UK manufacturing means British innovators, engineers, and manufacturers can maintain a high skill set. This ensures skills are not lost, allowing UK workers to be continually upskilled, improving the current job market.

  • High-quality standards, guaranteed ⚒️: Manufacturing items in the UK means they have high standards to comply to. Choosing UK-made products means high-quality materials will be used, improving reliability.
  • Support local businesses 🤝: Supporting local UK-based businesses helps create jobs, driving UK innovation, and strengthens our economy! This helps maintain a stronger future for British manufacturing.

Manufacturing in Stourbridge just for you 🏭

At Workplace Products, we are proud to be a part of the UK Manufacturing scene since the 1970s. That is why we manufacture many of our best-selling products in-house at our Stourbridge factory!

The West Midlands has always been a hub for manufacturing, dating back as far as the Industrial Revolution. Today, it is a key contributor to the UK’s overall economy, and helping maintain high levels of employment, resulting in the maintenance of traditional skills, as well as encouraging new, technological ones.

TUFF Lockers 🔐

Our bespoke TUFF Lockers are made to order, making them even more flexible to suit your unique needs. Made with 0.7mm thick steel, these lockers are strong and durable for frequent use. Choose from a range of 7 colours for a powder-coated finish, which is fire-resistant, scratch-resistant, and even prevents cross-contamination of germs thanks to advanced anti-bacterial capabilities! With each locker available with 1-6 compartments, these lockers would be the ideal addition to any school or office environment.

Plus, when you request a quote from us, we can offer a site visit to ensure you order the correct number of lockers, as well as installation! An additional tail lift delivery upgrade is also available upon purchase, making locker installation easier than ever!
