PM Congratulates Eurobond




At a recent South Wales Dinner held by Prime Minister Gordon Brown, the PM and his wife expressed their delight at the continuous achievements of sister companies Eurobond and Euroclad during one of the manufacturing & construction industries most troubled years.

Eurobond and Euroclad, represented by their Group Non-Executive Director, Nick Williams, were praised for their outstanding success and progress in the development of environmentally responsible, fire resistant products that were helping to increase standards and awareness throughout the construction industry at a time when many other companies are struggling to stay afloat.

Welsh manufacturing has been particularly hard hit during the recession, as companies across the country cut spending and reduce workforce. With an annual fall in UK manufacturing of 12.4 per cent in 2008, the biggest downturn in forty years, the Prime Ministers recent acknowledgment is testament to the high quality and work ethic of both Welsh companies in difficult times.

Based in Cardiff, South Wales, we have grown from a small manufacturer supplying to the food processing industry, into a national organisation supplying to a multitude of industries across both private and public sectors. The company now employs 80 people at their headquarters in Cardiff and turns over more than £20 million a year, providing solutions for a range of applications from data centres to schools.


Euroclad, established in 1981, has become the largest independent supplier of profiled metal roof and wall cladding in the UK. Situated alongside Eurobond at their Cardiff Business Park, it has more than three decades of experience manufacturing steel and aluminium roof and wall cladding. Continuous investment and development has resulted in the company expanding to provide a wide range of products for a variety of industries.

Nick Williams, Group Non-Executive Director, said: “We are delighted to receive this commendation from the Prime Minister, which recognises the hard work and effort put in by all the staff here at Cardiff in producing products of the highest standard.”
