Case Studies

Product Display
The trend for supermarkets to be open 24 hours is good for consumers but can be a challenge for the supply chain. Central Metal Manufacturing were given an exacting brief to develop a modular, fully electronically operated product display system that could be removed, replaced and repacked overnight to cause minimum shop and shopper disruption. Central Metal Manufacturing met the challenge and delivered a system that can be assembled and packed in just four hours. As importantly, the integrated design meant that when stores have little or no notice of the precise size of stand required until the last minute, Central Metal Manufacturing can kit any combination of size and height within a few days prior to installation.

Site Security Sector
Reviewed a high volume production component for a customer in the site security sector where a seemingly cost effective manufacturing process was bedded in. Central Metal Manufacturing's design team came up with alternative proposals that have saved the customer an additional 10% cost saving in line with their brief to be creative and seek out further cost reductions wherever possible without compromising quality or lead times.

Yellow Goods Sector
Smart application of Central Metal Manufacturing's core competencies enables the company to offer this global yellow goods manufacturer a complete service comprising welded fabrications from 3mm up to 20mm, machined components, tube manipulation and painting. This is a single source solution for the customer as opposed to using a range of other individual supply chain members carrying out single activities. Central Metal Manufacturing understands its core competencies and is always looking to apply them to our customers' best advantage, leading to flexible and competitive solutions.
