Expansion leads to doubling of office space for Click Scolmore

30th May 2012


The doors are now officially open at Click Scolmore’s newly transformed head office premises in Tamworth, Staffordshire, which has seen a doubling in size of the office space to accommodate the rapidly growing business and workforce.

 

The expanded site now inhabits 120,000 sq ft and incorporates new offices and meeting rooms, a brand new reception.

 

The expansion of the premises follows the exceptional growth the company has experienced over the last couple of years despite a backdrop of very difficult trading conditions.  As well as continuing to grow the wiring accessories division on which the company was founded more than 20 years ago, new areas of the business have been developed.  There was the launch of the iNELS Home Automation division and the exclusive collaboration with Energetic, the world-leading low energy lighting manufacturer and most recently, the rebranding and expansion of the lighting division under the new OVIA umbrella brand.

 

Comments Marketing Manager, Marie Parry:  “When we moved to this site back in 2000, our strategy was to ensure we had room for continued growth and expansion.  Despite the difficult trading condition in recent years, Scolmore has continued to invest and grow and we are now in a position where we need more space and facilities for our strengthened team.

 

“As well as additional offices and meeting rooms, we are taking the opportunity to develop the training facilities that we are providing for our customers for the iNELS Home Automation Systems.  We are also adding a brand new lighting showroom to our existing Visitor Centre facilities and this will showcase the breadth of our lighting collection and expertise in this sector.” 

 

In keeping with the company’s growing green credentials, the new premises have been designed to be as energy efficient as possible.  A new office automation system means that all lighting is controlled on occupancy detection, while a daylight-linked dimming of all luminaries means a potential saving of around 40% in energy usage.  The external lighting too is controlled by the light levels outside. 

 

With five new appointments having been implemented within the restructured sales division in the last few months alone, it looks like the additional offices are already being put to good use.
