A Ruislip glass and mirror business has purchased a piece of industry-leading machinery, with plans to take on increased orders, thanks to a six-figure funding package from HSBC UK.

The Equipment Finance funding has enabled JP Glass & Décor to purchase a Vertical Glazing Machine Drilling and Milling machine, allowing the specialists to add greater precision finishes to their glassware while continuing to meet bespoke customer specifications.

The new machinery will enable faster production and shorter turnaround times, which could lead to at least a 25 per cent increase in productivity. As a result of the new investment, the company plans to take on more customers with an anticipated boost to its turnover of around 15 per cent.

JP Glass & Décor specialises in bespoke, made-to-specification shower doors. The new machinery will allow the company to continue its growth in the category, offering even higher quality products.

Darren Yates, Managing Director at JP Glass & Decor, commented: “Innovation plays a crucial role in crafting the highest-quality products so, with HSBC UK’s support, we’re delighted to be able to invest in this state-of-the-art machinery. It means we can produce the most intricate products, grow the business and remain top of the market.”

Elisha Sterling, Equipment Finance Corporate Account Manager at HSBC UK, said:
“Having supported J.P Glass & Décor for the past eight years, we’re thrilled to be able to fund its latest equipment purchase. The precision offered by this innovative piece of kit should improve productivity and enhance the products they are able to offer customers.”

JP Glass & Décor is a family run business specialising in glass and mirror products and processes, such as glass polishing and glass bevelling.
