Donghua Limited announces their relocation to a new building three and a half times the size of their previous facilities, to meet the growing demand for their products.
The UK arm of one of the world’s largest chain manufacturers has been established in the UK since 2009, doubling its turnover year on year to establish itself as one of the leading chain suppliers in the country. Located in Wolverhampton in the heart of the Midland’s historic chain industry, Donghua has moved to a larger building on the same industrial park which has minimised disruption for their customers.
Bob Wellsbury, managing director, of Donghua Limited explained: “This move heralds a new chapter for the UK team and is a direct response to the continued interest from UK customers in our range of quality chain products. One of our biggest strengths is we only sell to Distribution and OEMs and do not supply direct to end-users, unlike other manufacturers.”
“Our new headquarters boasts 25,000 square feet of warehouse capacity enabling us to not only increase the stock we carry of standard chain and reduce delivery timescales, but we can now also stock new product lines, such as sprockets to provide the complete ‘drive solution’, which have not typically been available in the UK exstock.”
Bob added: “A larger storage facility, together with improvements in the efficiency of our warehouse, means that we are now able to offer new, competitive prices and guarantee that no other supplier in the UK can beat us on price with like-for-like standard roller chain. Only Donghua branded chains and Manufacturer’s warranty, plus our technical & after-sales support, are available from Donghua Limited, irrespective of what other companies suggest.”
An additional, larger Kardex storage shuttle unit which holds half a tonne per tray has been installed alongside two existing vertical shuttle units, enabling Donghua to improve the storage and retrieval of small chain components.
The technical Workshop, where Universal Attachment Chain and Bespoke Chain is assembled, is housed in a dedicated area of the building which has been further enhanced with the addition of equipment to wash old lubrication off chain before re-lubrication or inspection, plus an etching machine for sprockets. Further developments are planned for 2017.
