Owen Pugh rebrands drainage division alongside Middlesbrough move

North East construction firm Owen Pugh has rebranded its drainage services division, in tandem with a relocation into a new flagship facility in Middlesbrough.

Part of The Owen Pugh Group, HCS Drain Services, which has rebranded to Owen Pugh Drain Services in line with the move, has relocated into a 10,000 sq ft warehouse facility on Raleigh Court, Riverside Park to further cement the Group’s foothold in Tees Valley.

Robin Armstrong, Group Logistics Director for Owen Pugh, said: “The move was a natural progression for Owen Pugh’s drainage arm having outgrown its base in Portrack Lane, Stockton which had served us well for five years.

“The move to Raleigh Court in Middlesbrough provides additional space, and, as an empty shell, it means we can adapt the facility to better meet the needs of the wider Owen Pugh business and provides a flagship facility within the Tees Valley.”

To coincide with the move, Owen Pugh has taken the decision to rebrand the division to Owen Pugh Drainage Services to better communicate its position as part of the wider group.

Paul Cockburn, general manager of Owen Pugh & Co Ltd which is responsible for the company’s drainage services business, said: “Since HCS Drain Services was established over 12 years ago the wider Owen Pugh business has grown significantly with several new divisions added in recent years.

“We therefore felt that the time was right to ensure there was no ambiguity around the ownership of the drainage arm, so we have rebranded as Owen Pugh Drain Services to align with the wider business.”

The Owen Pugh Group employs over 400 staff across its business.
