ZARGES, one of Europe’s leading providers of maintenance technology and access solutions, has welcomed a pledge by Boris Johnson to make significant investment into the UK’s construction and manufacturing sectors.
Key elements of the spending plan, announced by the Prime Minister last week, include the most significant reforms to UK planning regulations since the end of the Second World War, £100m worth of investment into infrastructure nationwide and £12bn of investment, across eight years, to strengthen Britain’s affordable housing stock.
Neil Harper, sales manager at ZARGES (UK), believes the planned investment should be cause for cautious optimism in the manufacturing, architectural and building businesses. Neil says: “The Prime Minister’s commitment to the UK construction sector demonstrates just how vital a role the industry will play in the national economic recovery, and represents significant opportunities for businesses working across Britain’s construction supply chain.
“The plans outlined in the speech put construction and manufacturing at the heart of the UK’s post-lockdown economy; a commitment we, as a business, support.
“Undoubtedly, the road to recovery will, at times, be challenging, but with a collaborative, cross-sector approach – and the pledged investment from the government – Britain can rebuild. At ZARGES, we are committed to standing by the construction and manufacturing industries to ensure they have all of the products they need to do their jobs effectively.
“From ladders, scaffolding and towers, to our industry leading stair and platform configurator, CREAXESS – which enables specifiers to tailor an access product to their exact needs – our offering is designed to help construction, architectural and maintenance professionals increase efficiency, productivity and, above all, safety.”
