At a time of continued growth, Burton-based roof tile manufacturer, Russell Roof Tiles has invested £10,000 in upgrading its equipment and technology.

Employing 100 staff across its two sites on Nicholson Way and Wetmore Lane in Burton, Russell Roof Tiles manufactures nearly one million roofing products a week. The investment is part of Russell Roof Tiles’ capital improvement plan to further enhance quality across the business, by utilising the latest innovations in manufacturing.

As part of this, Russell Roof Tiles installed a continuous inkjet printer at its manufacturing site on Nicholson Way, Burton. This equipment individually marks each pitched roof tile with a specific identification code, enabling Russell Roof Tiles to provide information quickly and easily for customers. 

Andrew Hayward, Managing Director at Russell Roof Tiles, said:

“At Russell Roof Tiles, we know that it is important to provide quality and value for our customers at every turn. It was therefore important that we continue to modernise and upgrade our equipment.

 “We have already noticed a vast improvement with the continuous inkjet printer and have received positive feedback from customers. With innovations in technology evolving every day, we will continue to invest in the latest equipment and technology to ensure we are always providing quality products and the highest level of customer service.

“Over the past five years, we have invested significantly in manufacturing processes to increase efficiencies and reduce environmental impact.”
