Laminate panel manufacturer Nu-Style Products, part of the Donaldson Group, has opened its second distribution centre in England. Located in Barnsley, the 4,500ft2 centre is the second location to open in England in the last 12 months. The site will trade under the Perform Panel name.
Perform Panel offers an alternative to tiles and the company says they offer a number of hygiene and maintenance benefits, as well as versatility and ease of installation. The laminate wall panels are suitable for various internal applications within both domestic and commercial environments.
Steve Galbraith, Managing Director at Nu-Style Products, commented: “We are incredibly excited to be opening our distribution centre in Barnsley. We already have good trading in the north of England and this site will allow us to further enhance our delivery service to our customers and continue Perform Panel’s growth.
“The team has a wealth of experience and we are committed to providing customers in the area with their panel requirements. This depot is further commitment to Nu-Style’s strategy of having a nationwide delivery service.”
Andrew Donaldson, CEO of the Donaldson Group, added: “The second distribution centre opening in England in the last year is a great investment for Perform Panel, Nu-Style and the Donaldson Group as a whole. It’s a really exciting time for the company; Nu-Style has another distribution centre location set to open in summer 2023, with further expansion set for 2024.
“The team offers a fast, reliable and quality distribution service and we’re delighted to bring this expansion to Barnsley and the surrounding Yorkshire area.”
Nu-Style joined the James Donaldson Group in 2016. The 162-year-old family business comprises 17 specialist timber and building product businesses, operating throughout the UK from 46 locations employing over 1,600 people.
