Under ‘one roof’ – MTE makes major investment in trussed roof plant
MTE is now able to undertake every aspect of timber frame construction in house following its decision to invest more than £100,000 investment in trussed roof plant.
Until recently MTE bought in trussed rafters but thanks to this major investment in Roof Truss and metal web joist equipment now has the capability to make them in-house.
This move not only allows MTE to offer customers a complete service but also gives the company ultimate control over every aspect of its business – ensuring the highest standards of quality.
Additionally it will also enable MTE to remain at the forefront of timber engineering innovation so the company can grow and diversify in line with the construction market’s needs.
