Fordingbridge PLC is a specialist in designing and manufacturing high-quality canopies, walkways, and all-weather protection structures. With a history dating back to the 1960s, the company has evolved from ventilation systems to become a leading provider of bespoke structures for various sectors including retail, education, healthcare, leisure, and crematoria. They pride themselves on a full-service approach, managing every phase of a structure's creation from initial survey and design through to manufacture and installation, all from their single site in West Sussex.
Their commitment to quality is underscored by an industry-leading 25-year guarantee on all structures, which are CE marked. Fordingbridge emphasizes sustainability, evident in projects like the UK's first zero-energy coffee retail outlet and the Greenpower Centre. They work collaboratively with clients, contractors, and planners, aiming to enhance environments and day-to-day lives by creating attractive, exciting, and life-enhancing spaces that offer maximum value with minimum stress.
The company highlights its unique approach by not outsourcing any element of a project, ensuring rigorous quality control. They have experience in creating a wide range of structures, from large retail canopies to covered outdoor dining spaces for schools and all-weather protection for leisure facilities. Their dedication to client satisfaction and a hassle-free process has resulted in a significant portion of their business coming through personal recommendation.
