Facilities

Home / Facilities

In 2008 we purchased our existing 3 acre site at Canyon Road, Wishaw. Through continued
development we have more than doubled production space from 25,000 sq ft to over 50,000 sq ft.

Phase 1

Modify existing building and install additional new overhead cranes. Install CNC plasma plate cutting
machine

Phase 2

Build 6,000 sq ft extension to house our fully automated CNC saw and drill line with additional
overhead crane and unloading bay

Phase 3

Build 9,000 sq ft painting facility, construct a 9,000 sq ft extension for welding and production of
fittings with additional overhead cranes. Modify slab and form pit for new shot blaster.
During an average week (2 shifts), we process 150 tonnes of structural steelwork including
application of surface treatments, as a result of efficiencies gained through our development plan.
To summarise, G R Contracts has a free flowing workshop which negates the need for manual
handling.
