Bookings for ‘fascinating’ tour of factory set to close

RIDBA members are running out of time to book their spot on a tour of the factory of Shufflebottom.

Shufflebottom is an award-winning company which specialises in steel-framed buildings and structural steelwork and has built more than 15,000 structures across the UK.

The RIDBA member was established in 1986 with the second generation of Shufflebottom’s – Alex and Wesley – becoming directors in 2008, alongside general manager Alec Davies.

Alex Shufflebottom said: “We’re looking forward to welcoming members to our base in Llanneli. Following an introduction to the company’s history, we’ll be taking members through each stage of our manufacturing process.”

The tour will begin at 3pm on Thursday, September 8 and will be followed by a meal at The Plough, in Llandeilo, a short drive from Shufflebottom.

Joe Chalk, RIDBA general manager, said: “My thanks to Alex and the team at Shufflebottom for agreeing to host a tour. I’m sure it will be a fascinating visit and a fantastic opportunity for members to catch up!”
