UK & Ireland MDF mouldings manufacturer SAM Mouldings has announced a £20m investment in its 35th year of business. 

The significant investment is in addition to the £7m SAM already invested during 2023/24. 

SAM says £10m of the new investment will be spent on installing new bespoke machinery to double current output and offer an even greater range of high-quality MDF mouldings to meet rising market demand.

“At SAM, we understand the importance of delivering the right product at the right time,” said Sam McCrea, CEO of SAM Mouldings. 

“This investment in advanced manufacturing capabilities ensures we remain at the forefront of the industry and continue to offer the high-quality product our customers expect.”

This latest investment is also to further expand the Solar PV panels that already provide a significant share of SAM’s energy requirements, underlining SAM’s focus on reducing its carbon footprint and supporting a more sustainable future for the construction sector. 

The investment includes the recent opening of a distribution centre in the West Midlands to significantly improve SAM’s logistics capabilities, with enhancements in stockholding capacity and delivery efficiency. 

SAM’s ICT systems are also being improved to streamline operations and improve overall efficiency, while multiple new employee roles have been created across the business, further growing its already 200+ strong workforce.
