Ridgeway Manufacturing Ltd Expands Operations with New Facilities and Key Hires

October 17, 2024

Ridgeway Manufacturing Ltd, a well-established name in the industrial equipment sector, has made significant strides in its growth strategy with the addition of a 7,000 square-foot expansion to its manufacturing facilities. 

As one of the UK's leading suppliers of tipping skips and forklift attachments, Ridgeway is renowned for providing durable and reliable solutions for industries that rely on efficient material handling. Now, with growing demand for its newly introduced products—telehandler teleskips and water filtration RORO (Roll-on/Roll-off) tanks—the company is taking steps to meet this demand head-on.

Meeting Market Demand for Core and New Products

At the core of Ridgeway Manufacturing's offering is a comprehensive range of tipping skips and forklift attachments. These products have long been a staple for businesses in construction, waste management, and logistics that require robust and effective equipment to improve productivity and safety on the job. Over the years, Ridgeway has built a solid reputation as a trusted supplier in these industries, earning loyalty from its customers through high-quality products and reliable service.

While tipping skips and forklift attachments remain at the heart of Ridgeway's operations, the company has seen a significant increase in demand for new products such as telehandler teleskips and water filtration RORO tanks. The telehandler teleskips have proven especially popular for construction and industrial projects that require efficient material handling, while the water filtration RORO tanks are gaining traction within the waste management sector, particularly for water decontamination solutions.

To keep pace with this growing demand, Ridgeway Manufacturing has expanded its facilities, with the newly added 7,000 square feet dedicated to increasing production capacity. This additional space will allow Ridgeway to manufacture more of its core products while also scaling up production of its newer offerings to meet customer needs across multiple sectors.

Improving Capability with New Additions to the Team

As part of its growth strategy, Ridgeway has also bolstered its team with key new hires. A new design/technical manager has joined the company, bringing a wealth of experience in industrial product design. This individual will be key in maintaining Ridgeway's commitment to innovation and quality, ensuring that the company continues to develop products that exceed industry standards.

Additionally, Ridgeway has brought on board a new sales manager with extensive experience in the roll-on roll-off (RORO) industry. This hire will be crucial in driving sales and expanding the company’s reach in the RORO market. With years of industry knowledge, the new sales manager will work closely with clients to ensure Ridgeway’s solutions meet the unique needs of businesses requiring both traditional and new equipment.

Solidifying Ridgeway’s Position as a Leading Supplier

While the expansion of facilities and the addition of new products like telehandler teleskips and water filtration RORO tanks mark an exciting new chapter for Ridgeway Manufacturing, it’s important to note that the company remains firmly grounded in its roots. Tipping skips and forklift attachments remain a vital part of Ridgeway’s business, and the company continues to be a leading supplier of these products across the UK.

The newly expanded production capabilities mean that Ridgeway can not only meet the increased demand for teleskips and RORO tanks but also continue to serve its core markets with tipping skips and forklift attachments, which have long been trusted by customers in industries that demand rugged, reliable equipment.

Looking Ahead

As Ridgeway Manufacturing looks to the future, the company is excited to support businesses with both its established product range and its new offerings. The additional manufacturing space and expanded leadership team are key components of a strategy that will see Ridgeway continue to grow and adapt to meet the changing needs of the market.

With a strengthened presence in the RORO industry and a continued commitment to being a top supplier of tipping skips and forklift attachments, Ridgeway Manufacturing is well-positioned for continued success. Whether you’re in need of robust tipping skips, forklift attachments, or newer solutions like telehandler teleskips and RORO tanks, Ridgeway is here to help your business operate more efficiently and effectively.
