Precast flooring supplier secures further growth with Northumberland's Lynefield Park

Lynx Precast Limited is to commit a further 15 years and additional space to Northumberland’s Lynefield Park, a multi-million pound industrial site currently being redeveloped at the former Alcan Aluminium smelter plant.

Lynx Precast is a manufacturer and installer of precast, concrete flooring systems. Working with site owners and land regeneration company, Harworth Group, Lynx Precast was one of the first occupiers to locate to Lynefield Park in 2014.

The company is to now take an extra 20,000 sq ft of industrial space adjoining its existing unit to enable expansion and sales growth.

The company employs 48 staff and supplies precast concrete flooring products to national and regional housebuilders, main contractors, groundworkers and builders merchants.

It has invested more than £3m into its T Beam and Hollowcore manufacturing plant which is the only facility in the North East to produce both products.

Andy Teasdale, managing director of Lynx Precast Limited, commented: “This is an exciting next phase in the company’s growth and our ambitions to grow the business on a national level are firmly rooted here in Northumberland.

“The nature of our business dictates the commercial space that we require in terms of land, storage, services, access for vehicles and local transport infrastructure, and Lynefield Park met all of our requirements now and for the future.”

Lynefield Park has various industrial units onsite ranging from 9,000 to 40,000 sq ft.

Situated close to road, rail and sea transport links, the 1.3 million sq ft brownfield site (175 acres) can accommodate future units of up to 500,000 sq ft on a freehold or design and build basis following an 18 months demolition programme in preparation for future redevelopment.
