New Kemwell companies formed as a result of unprecedented growth

IMPORTANT CHANGES AT KEMWELL
NEW COMPANIES FORMED

Kemwell has established three distinct and separate companies, Kemwell PFP Ltd., Kemwell Facades Ltd., and Kemwell CES Ltd., now all part of the Kemwell Group Ltd. allowing us to provide a more dedicated and expert service.

We will now have a greater focus on our main areas of business: Passive Fire Protection, Facades and Cladding, and the manufacture and installation of Critical Life Safety Cable Enclosures.

The alternations in the group structure are the culmination of numerous changes during the last couple of years, due to the phenomenal sales growth, which has resulted in significant investment in the workforce; new dedicated premises (combining offices, manufacturing, assembly and warehousing), the introduction of new products, and product testing and certification.

We have put in place additional resources internally so that our customers receive enhanced technical support and customer service. Our distributors will be able to purchase products directly from each of the new companies.

These changes will allow us to provide enhanced and more specialised support to everyone we deal with, from our distributors, to providing technical support during the design and specification stage, and of course, onsite support during installation and build to contractors.

Peter Keenan

Sales and Marketing Director, Kemwell Group Limited

The new companies will begin operations and trading with effect from 3rd April 2023.

Kemwell PFP will focus on passive fire protection products and insulation for internal use in Great Britain.

Kemwell Facades will concentrate on external weather protection products for wall and roofing and external wall insulation products in Great Britain.

Kemwell CES will provide bespoke manufacturing and contracting/installation of our cable enclosure systems on a worldwide basis.

Kemwell Facades

NOTE: For Ireland and Northern Ireland, Kemwell Fire International will still sell all products across Passive Fire Protection and Facades product ranges.  Cable enclosure systems will be available from Kemwell CES Ltd.

HOW DOES THIS AFFECT OUR  CUSTOMERS?

Our internal processes have been changing behind the scenes in recent months to reflect these new arrangements and to make the transition for our customers as smooth as possible.

These new companies will begin operations and trading with effect from 3rd April 2023.

Our Account customers will need to start placing orders with the relevant company they need products from. Invoices will be issued from the new companies.

Sustained growth leads to office and warehousing move for Kemwell Fire

Sustained growth leads to office and warehousing move for Kemwell Fire

We are delighted to announce that we have moved to a larger, dedicated facility in Rubery, Birmingham, combining offices, manufacturing, assembly and warehousing. 

The relocation comes as a result of our phenomenal growth over the past few years, which has seen significant investment in our workforce, the introduction of new products, and the growing demand for our products for construction projects throughout the UK and Ireland.

Expanding our operation to larger and more user-friendly offices and warehousing facilities means we can now continue to progress with our plans for further sales growth and product development as well as providing enhanced sales and technical support and increased stock levels to our customer base.

Sales and Marketing Director Peter Keenan commented:

“The relocation of our operation to Rubery is the start of a new and exciting phase for Kemwell Fire. We’ve outgrown our existing separate office and warehousing premises, and by bringing together our whole operation to one specialist developed site will help us to remain at the forefront of the fire protection industry. It will also enable us to provide even higher levels of service excellence for our customers. We would like to thank our customers for their continued support and loyalty.” 

Kemwell was formed in 2017, borne out of the acquisition of a long-established fire protection company, and has quickly grown to become one of the UK and Ireland’s most respected names in passive fire protection, cladding and insulation. Kemwell is a valuable source of innovative products and systems for the construction, infrastructure, transportation and energy sectors.

  

Kemwell works closely with architects, specifiers and contractors, and with its specialist product range and application knowledge, provides alternative choices in the critical areas of fire protection for new build and refurbishment/upgrade works

Kemwell Continue To Innovate With Latest Launch | Kemwell Corex A1

Kemwell Continue To Innovate With Latest Launch | Kemwell Corex A1

Kemwell is proud to expand our product offering once again and bring Kemwell Corex A1 to the UK and Ireland markets.

Kemwell Corex A1 is a non-combustible gypsum board for applications where superior fire performance and innovative solutions are required, such as structural steel protection, shaft walls, partitions, and ceiling linings.

A building with a steel frame system should withstand fire, without losing its integrity during the fire, at least for long enough to evacuate people from the building. To achieve this, the load-bearing steel columns and beams must maintain their integrity at high temperatures for long periods without losing their carrying capacity and integrity. Steel encased with Kemwell Corex A1 can maintain their load-bearing capacity for up to 240 minutes.

The core of Kemwell Corex A1 is reinforced with special additives to enhance fire resistance and moisture resistance meaning the board can be installed prior to the building becoming weather-tight. Both sides of Kemwell Corex A1 are covered with a completely non-flammable fibre glass mat, meaning the board is classified as A1 non-combustible in accordance with EN 13501-1.
