Naylor pull out the stops to secure NHS capacity


A Yorkshire-based building materials manufacturer is pulling out the stops to produce ventilation duct for emergency hospitals.

Naylor Industries, a member of the Builders Merchants Federation, is supporting the temporary facilities, including the NHS Nightingale Hospital in London's Docklands, with its ventilation duct.

The product is being installed as part of ventilation and temperature control measures at the sites.

Naylor Industries Chief Executive, Edward Naylor, said: "I'm extremely proud of our ventilation duct team who have worked day and night to meet the increased demand. 

“These facilities are being built at an amazing rate and we have been really pleased to play our part in their construction."

The ventilation duct is being manufactured at Naylor Industries’ Head Office site, at Wombwell, near Barnsley. 

A fourth-generation family business, which was founded in 1890, the Naylor Group has 400 employees based on five sites.
