ASL expands factory
With a rapid growth in orders since the beginning of 2019, ASL GRP have expanded and moved production to a larger factory on the Isle of Wight. With such an expanse, there has been a need to take on further production staff in both our soft armour, and composite departments. ASL GRP have seen orders for marine armour and vehicle protection kits increase substantially.
“The new production facility gives us the extra space we need to complete the larger jobs we have brought in. Our new team members have already made a great impression. We have also bought further equipment to accommodate the increase in armour requirements.” said Jon Diffey, ASL GRP’s Managing Director.
The new factory is set further into the Isle of Wight countryside, with no neighbouring businesses, more outdoor space (which became apparent was needed within a few months of being at the Merstone site). There is now easier access for deliveries and the larger vehicles that ASL GRP often have to take on site.
“Our new site includes a contemporary, open-plan office and a display area for visiting clients to see a broader range of our work.”
