Our Story

Weholite and The Noble Art of Manufacturing

It is difficult to comprehend that in a little over two decades, we have evolved into a contemporary business that is fully embracing both the new Industry 4.0 and offsite build mentalities, whilst still holding onto the magnificent values of British manufacturing; that made this country the workshop of the World.

We are proud of our people & our products

Fast forward to the present day, with four extrusion lines capable of producing more than ten thousand tonnes of Weholite per annum and the World’s most sophisticated pre-fabrication shop for large diameter structured wall pipes and products, which includes a robotic milling cutter, a computerised band saw and cloud based reporting and communication systems.

You might be forgiven for thinking that we have achieved all that is possible. You would be wrong. As the World becomes increasingly digitized, and technological advancement continues to move at unprecedented pace, Industry 4.0 is coming and we plan to be leading the way.

Our ethos, and indeed that of the Weholite brand is about making things and in turn, we have a simple vision, to make people happy. However, this will only be possible with creative and innovative people who are encouraged to think freely and exchange ideas both internally and externally. Our people welcome the opportunity for development and the advantages that a learning culture brings. 

Above all else, we are proud of our people, proud of our product and proud to be British manufacturers. The Weholite factory in Newport, South Wales clearly demonstrates that the noble art of manufacturing is not only thriving, but also leading the World in plastic construction products technology.
