Thermocable hits ‘huge milestone’ with move
A linear detection cable maker has secured a ten-year lease on a new warehouse.
Thermocable, part of Halma plc, will occupy 39,435sq ft of ground-floor space and additional office facilities in the newly-built unit at Bradford’s Leftfield Park.
Bosses say the move, part of Thermocable’s ten-year growth plan, will support the company’s rapid expansion in cable-based sensing technology.
They add the warehouse also aligns with Thermocable’s ongoing innovation strategy.
Alice Ham, general manager, said: “We are so proud of how much we have grown over the last couple of years, and taking this next step in our journey is a huge milestone.
“The dedication and commitment of the Thermocable team to continue to innovate, grow and work smarter is incredible.
“This office and warehouse space will enable us to continue with our ten-year growth plan without the need to scrimp on space or worry about new equipment and recruitment.
“We are excited to continue to boost Bradford’s economy, bridge industry skills gaps, and continue to raise the bar in manufacturing excellence and fire safety.”
The deal leaves just one Grade A unit available at Leftfield Park.
Leeds-based DHP advised Thermocable, while CBRE, Carter Towler and JLL represented the landlord.
Danielle Raunjak, associate director at CBRE, added: “Leftfield Bradford offers excellent strategic access to occupiers looking to benefit from the Bradford and West Leeds localities and labour market.
“The final unit at Leftfield Bradford is the only unit available of Grade A quality in Bradford, reflecting the continued demand for good quality and strategically located warehouse space in the wider region.”
