Further Investments leads
to Senior Appointment
»»Hurst Plastics is marking its
most significant year in the last five years with
20% uplift in composite door volumes and
the strategic appointment of a new senior
manager.
‘a genuinely exciting time’
Tim Meadley joins the Kingston-uponHull based company as General Manager.
Tim is a senior manufacturing professional
with a vast knowledge of material and process
planning within this industry, having worked
as Manufacturing Director for Consort and
Ellbee and latterly, Granada Glazing.
Tim’s appointment is part of a new
company-wide strategy which has seen
Hurst implement its largest ever programme
of investment into staff, equipment and
resources.
Mark Atkinson, Sales Director at Hurst
Plastics, says: “We have had a great year
on composite door volumes and Tim’s
appointment is instrumental to our plans
for future growth in this segment. Tim will
harness his considerable experience in high
volume production and lean manufacturing to
take our business to the next level.”
Tim added: “I’m really pleased to be
joining Hurst at a genuinely exciting time in
the company’s history. I’m looking forward
to spearheading this ambitious growth plan
and building a solid foundation on which to
improve efficiencies.”
This year has seen a number of significant
developments at Hurst, both in technology
and equipment. The company has completely
overhauled its IT systems in the last two years
and further advanced its cutting edge Hurst
Live account management system. Hurst has
also implemented a step change investment
programme for plant and machinery. This
included the installation of a Biesse Rover A
five-axis machining centre.
