Norfolk Industries is part of the Adult Social
Services Department and is funded by Norfolk County Council with a non profit
making budget
In
1992, Action for Blind People took over the management of Norfolk
Industries in order to secure the future of the factory.This agreement ensures that
responsibility is divided between the parties ensuring continued
monitoring and support in all areas.We
operate in the commercial market in order to supplement our budget and to
provide work experience services for our employees in order to develop them
towards unsupported employment
Norfolk Industries specialises in
manufacturing a wide range of wire products and pet bedding.Most
items are subsequently plastic coated in various colours including white, beige,
black, green and red.
Our main products
are storage heater and radiator guards, which are aimed mostly at schools,
nursing homes, etc., however, we do deal directly with the ordinary household
too.The guards are constructed as health and safety items and as
such are always produced to a high quality.
We also make items such as golf and medical
equipment, veterinary supplies, gardening equipment, external guarding and shop
fittings.In fact, we are quite happy to tackle almost any type of
wire work product.
A large selection of the products we make are to
customer specification, but drawings are not always necessary.The
ability to tell us what is required and perhaps a sample of the item required
always helps!
Our packing and despatch department is happy dealing
with all different shapes and weights of items, which are then packed into boxes
or onto pallets whichever is the most cost effective or alternatively, the
method the customer
requires.
