The company, which specialises in roofing battens, cedar shingles and Kitemarked scaffold boards, had previously shared offices with a sister company in Derby.

The new premises in Huthwaite (just off Junction 28 of the M1) has more room and more facilities and further scope for expansion.

The company reported that sales of its Premium Gold batten continue to increase, crediting the growth to use of sustainable slow-grown timber and compliance to both BS8417: 2011 + A1: 2014 and BS5534: 2014 standards.

“The new HQ is another piece in the jigsaw for our business, which, because of our partnership with Timberex, means we effectively have our own sawmill – which is said to be the largest production mill solely for the production of factory-graded roofing battens in Europe,” said SR’s trading director Shaun Revill.
