Only 2 weeks after being stopped at the company’s old site in Dudbridge, the presses are back in production at the new facility. A company spokesperson said: “There has been a massive effort put in by all the team at Stroud Metal and the results are truly fantastic! The second batch of equipment will be transferred to the facility shortly, with Stroud Plastics starting their relocation process at the end of July.”
