Moduflex recognises that the only way to stay ahead of the competition is to be responsive to client demands for new and interesting products, whilst keeping an eye on market forces.

This has led to an investment in product design technology, new staff, new software and new machinery.  We intend to continue to manufacture heritage products to the highest possible standard, whilst introducing new products for our customers as and when required.

Moduflex has invested heavily in new machinery, and therefore manufacturing capacity in recent years.  The investment has led to the in-house manufacture of MFC products, expanding our personnel, improved production times, and extending our overall product portfolio.

A significant percentage of components for our mobile systems have been manufactured externally in the past, but we now have the capabilities to manufacture these in-house.  Our raw materials are also sourced from within the UK to minimise our carbon footprint. Our raw steel is made from 80% recycled content and our MFC is 50%.

We’ve implemented Lights-Out manufacturing, meaning our CNC machines can run at night without human intervention, meaning fewer hours of lighting is needed to run the machines.

Salvagnini P1 Panel Bender

This machine has replaced our previous factory process of bending sheets of steel by hand with a press brake machine, and re-tooling for different metal thicknesses which was very manual and time consuming.

This powerful new equipment automatically bends complex folds in the metal in seconds as seen in this video, without the need to change tools, leading to a much faster production time of our shelving products and a more precise finish.

Using sustainability technology, the bending formula automatically optimises the bending parameters to reduce material waste.
