Newport, United Kingdom — National Timber Systems was previously part of National Timber Group UK, which entered administration in late November. We have acquired the business from the administrators, securing continuity for NTS’s operations, customers and manufacturing footprint. This acquisition safeguards 160 jobs at NTS, with plans to grow this number to 250. National Timber Systems supplies national and regional housebuilders, as well as the construction and modular sectors, with a range of engineered timber products and services. These include the BBA-accredited NTSROOF® panelised roof system, roof trusses, engineered joists and specialist roof and floor cassette solutions. …The transaction sees Premier Forest acquiring NTS operations in Bristol, Catterick and Newcastle, plus the assets of the Sheffield site, with the aim to return to full production capacity to meet customer demand.
