THe timber building arm of housebuilder Stewart Milne yesterday said it had secured more than £6 million in contracts throughout the UK.
It said the latest agreements, to supply and erect timber build systems, covered a range of sectors including healthcare and hotels. Almost £4m of the contracts relate to affordable and sheltered housing in Scotland and the north-west of England, with student accommodation in Essex and a hotel in Londonderry, Northern Ireland.
Gary Yeoman, a director of Stewart Milne Timber Systems, said: “This gives us a solid pipeline. We are seeing increased interest from existing and potential customers.”
