Integra Buildings has announced major expansion plans at its East Yorkshire base.

Integra is in the final stages of acquiring six acres of land next to its site in Paull, east of Hull, and has submitted plans to East Riding of Yorkshire Council to incorporate this area into its operations. The development of the land will increase the Integra site footprint to over 14 acres and create room to meet the award-winning company’s current and future needs.

The expansion will create 20 new jobs, secure Integra's future on the site as one of the leading employers in the Holderness area and is key to the management’s ambitions to double revenues to £60m within three years. The land has been earmarked for a new production facility as well as storage, loading and dispatch areas.

Managing Director Gary Parker said: "We need more room to deliver our current projects, service our very healthy order book and continue our growth. We’re already bursting at the seams much of the time.

"It's also absolutely essential to maintain operations on a single site, for operational efficiency and to maintain our competitiveness. The expansion of our current site, where we have already invested millions in facilities, is the perfect solution.

"This is great news for our employees and our supply chain, the vast majority of which is within East Yorkshire, as well as creating 20 new skilled and semi-skilled production jobs for local people."

Integra's development has been supported by a very close working relationship over many years with East Riding Council. The local authority has provided practical advice and guidance to the company on a number of issues, including developing a successful funding bid to the Humber Local Enterprise Partnership's Growing the Humber programme to assist the company’s investments at Paull.

Integra has consulted with East Riding Council's planning department prior to submission of the application for change of use of the land and development of the new production facility.

Pending planning permission, Integra intends to begin work integrating the land into its site in six months.
