It\u2019s an exciting time of expansion and growth for offsite timber frame specialist Scotframe<\/h2>\n

Like the timber frame market itself, Scotframe, an industry leader in the supply of full kit packages for housing and commercial projects in the UK, is undergoing a period of expansion and exciting new opportunities.<\/p>\n

The Scottish-based company, which has just joined the global Saint-Gobain<\/a> family, is planning further incursions into wider UK markets, as well as ramping up its training programmes to underpin its industry-leading offsite manufacturing<\/a> capability.<\/p>\n

Scotframe is a relative youngster in comparison to the French multi-national Saint-Gobain, which was founded in Paris in 1655. In contrast, Scotframe was established in Inverurie, in North East Scotland, just 28 years ago.<\/p>\n

However, since then, it has transformed itself from a small local enterprise that made just 100 kits in its first year into a thriving concern dealing across sectors throughout Britain and abroad.<\/p>\n

It has two manufacturing facilities in Inverurie and at Cumbernauld, just outside Glasgow, as well as sales offices and showrooms at Inverness and Dundee. It has 160 production and office staff and turned over \u00a335m last year, equating to some 1,500 units.<\/p>\n

On the residential side, it has a strong presence in the self-build market, as well as a trade sector supplying substantial developers such as Dandara<\/a>, Cala<\/a> and Tulloch Construction and also smaller, regional builders.<\/p>\n

Its commercial arm provides full kit packages for hotels, schools, care homes and even a distillery as far afield as Orkney.<\/p>\n

Up to 90% of kits supplied by Scotframe to the self-build market use its Val-U-Therm\u00a0PLUS\u00ae closed panel system, a new type of building panel from which a house that is effectively zero carbon can be quickly and efficiently erected.<\/p>\n

The Val-U-Therm\u00a0PLUS\u00ae panels \u2013 precision-crafted from timber from sustainable sources and 100% fully filled with injected polyurethane insulation \u2013 can cut energy bills to virtually zero. They are maintenance-free and designed to last for 60 years.<\/p>\n

The panels not only exceed all current building standards but also anticipate likely future regulations \u2013 allowing self-builders to futureproof their properties. Val-U-Therm\u00a0PLUS\u00ae has a BRE Green Guide A\/A+ Rating and can achieve Passivhaus standard<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is this kind of innovative thinking, said Scotframe Sales Director Malcolm Thomson, that attracted the attention of Saint-Gobain, which has a strong presence in Scotland and helped build the new Forth Crossing.<\/p>\n

\u201cScotframe\u2019s alliance with Saint-Gobain will bring many benefits,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will help accelerate our expansion into markets south of the border, enhance our financial security and allow us to develop our people.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe hope to develop self-build training schemes to help our customers develop their own skills and knowledge about the process of building their own home.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe new relationship also gives us access to other Saint-Gobain companies operating in the UK, such as Jewson, which has more than 700 outlets, predominantly in our target market of England.\u201d<\/p>\n

The wind is fair for an expansion of offsite manufactured kits in England. According to the Structural Timber Association<\/a>, the market share for timber construction in England has risen to 22.8% \u2013 below Wales at 30.7% but above Northern Ireland at 17.4%.<\/p>\n

All three home countries are outshone by Scotland, which has traditionally led the way in timber frame construction. Its market share for timber construction has now reached 83%.<\/p>\n

With housebuilding now near the top of the political agenda in the UK, the spotlight is increasingly focused on off site or pre-manufacture construction and the significant benefits it brings to large and small projects.<\/p>\n

\"TimberThese include:<\/p>\n

Alleviation<\/strong> of construction industry skills shortages. OSM factories such as Scotframe have a permanent, skilled workforce and established supply chains, reducing reliance on subcontracted labour.<\/p>\n

Safety.<\/strong> Construction in a factory is predictable and controlled.<\/p>\n

Timescales.<\/strong> Closed panels are delivered to site in packs to suit the build sequence required. Pre-manufactured structures increase the speed of build and time to wind and water tightness, allowing quicker access for follow-on trades.<\/p>\n

Sustainability.<\/strong> Offsite construction requires less heavy machinery and less energy. Transporting the finished product to the site also uses fewer vehicles. Wastage is minimised as material requirements can be more accurately calculated.<\/p>\n

Less disruption<\/strong> to local residents, with evidence showing 60% fewer trucks coming to sites.<\/p>\n

Malcolm Thomson said: \u201cOffsite manufacture weighs heavily in favour of timber frame construction, from quality control to time on site, waste reduction and a more socially acceptable way of building.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough the construction market as a whole can fluctuate, the share of that market which is being taken by timber frame is growing all the time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scotframe offers a full-kit package, not just the timber frame structure. It manages, coordinates, sources, orders and delivers the balance of the package \u2013 that is, windows, external and internal doors, insulation, plasterboard, facings, skirtings, stairs, handrails, ironmongery, mirrored wardrobe doors and shelving.<\/p>\n

The only elements the builder has to deal with are bathrooms and kitchens, plumbing and electrics, external cladding, foundations and roof tiles.<\/p>\n

When she\u2019s not working hard on cranking out first-class content for our online viewers to enjoy, she\u2019s keeping our social media lively and up to date\u2026 you could call her a social media guru? We\u2019re sure she\u2019d like that. With a BA in English and Journalism, Steph isn\u2019t fazed by attention to detail; on the contrary, she enjoys getting her teeth into a good article. In her downtime Steph loves nothing more than getting together with friends to enjoy a few (several) gin and tonics. Think you\u2019ve got some content Steph would be interested in?
