Berry Systems | UK Construction and Manufacturing

The UK economy saw growth of 0.5% in the final quarter of 2015. The UK is dominated by the service sector yet the future for the construction industry looks promising. As of April 2015, there have been 40 regeneration projects listed of which the RIO are seeking further investment.

Thus far, 2016 has seen the construction industry lead a steady start with January’s forecast showing 23% of projects being within infrastructure and another 23% being within the residential sector. For companies like Berry Systems, these opportunities positively reflect on the future of the construction industry.

February so far upholds it’s promise after showing an increase in growth in the residential (39%) and infrastructure (33%) sectors; therefore, alliterating the concept that this industry, no matter how volatile, consistently sees demand. Berry Systems’ presence within the infrastructure sector is niche; however, their adaptability signifies that opportunities can be sort-out anywhere.Their range of secondary steelwork infrastructure products are applicable to industries, including: industrial, commercial and residential. As more focus and demand is acknowledged within the residential and consequently the new-build sector, products and services will be demanded throughout to ensure the safety of pedestrians, workers and site is guaranteed from errant vehicles.

The Government introduced a Four-point plan in October 2015 that illustrates steps that have so far been taken to help encourage growth within all construction and manufacturing sectors.

Trolley bays for new supermarkets, anti-ram Bollards for retailers, leisure services and small business owners and Wheel Guides for built up and busy areas).

Annual forecast reports indicate that the construction market will see a 17% growth as major infrastructure projects take form. One of these will include the HS2 development of which will hopefully encourage more business, infrastructural and residential projects to be taken on all throughout the UK.

If this is done, it could ultimately result in long-term growth and development nationwide.
