The recent acquisition of Formes Alutek by Lancashire-based LDG Group, one of Senior Architectural System’s leading fabricators in the North West, will provide specifiers and contractors with an enhanced range of services as the industry heads out of recession.

Formes Alutek, renowned for its expertise on high profile and innovative projects including Great Ormond Street Hospital and M&S’s most eco-friendly store at Cheshire Oaks where the company installed Senior’s revolutionary Hybrid system, will complement the design and fabrication capabilities of the LDG Group whilst safeguarding jobs and opening up new market opportunities.

LDG Group, with a turnover of £15 million, has specialised in the design, fabrication and installation of Senior’s curtain wall systems for more than 10 years, building an impressive client base across sectors including new build, commercial and refurbishment for both the private and public sectors.

The company’s in-house powder coating and glass processing plants ensure consistent quality and fast lead times, which when combined with Formes’ industry leading fabrication capabilities, in particular the ability to curve to extreme tolerances, will ensure that the enlarged business will be in a position to capitalise on emerging opportunities across the spectrum of markets.

Senior Architectural Systems will continue to support the new business with technical and project support where required to help ensure that LDG remains a major force in the industry.
