OUTSOURCE YOUR FABRICATION, RECLAIM YOUR TIME
If you’re a fabricator-installer, the decision to stop fabricating in-house is a big one. Ultimately, it may well be the right one to secure the future of your business.
Why more installers are making the switch
Fabricating in-house used to be the only way to stay in control. But rising costs, growing complexity, and time away from customers mean it’s no longer sustainable for many.
That’s where we come in. At Glazerite, we take the strain off your shoulders – supplying high-quality products, reliable support, and the freedom to focus on what really matters: installations, customers and business growth.
The hidden costs of in-house fabrication
Rising costs & Pressures
Energy, materials, insurance, and compliance costs are spiralling. Add in equipment investment and maintenance, and it’s harder than ever to stay profitable.
Operational headaches
Recruitment and retention, staff illness, machine downtime – you’re constantly firefighting instead of focusing on the bigger picture.
Time away from growth
Fabrication pulls your attention away from sales, installations, and customer relationships. Every hour spent managing production is an hour lost on building your business.
FUTUREPROOF YOUR BUSINESS WITHOUT THE BURDEN
Running a fabrication operation is no longer the easiest route to growth. Rising costs, skills shortages, and constant reinvestment in tooling and compliance make it harder to plan for the future. By outsourcing to Glazerite, you get a scalable, modern manufacturing solution – without the capital expense or operational risk. We continuously invest in our people, systems, and technology so you don’t have to. Whether you want to grow your product range, take on bigger projects, or simply free yourself from day-to-day manufacturing pressures, we help you move forward with confidence.
“We’ve already invested in the facilities, technology and expertise — so you don’t have to.”
Outsourcing
Benefits
Lower overheads
Removing the need to run your own fabrication setup cuts down on overheads instantly – no machinery investment, no maintenance, no costly energy bills. You only pay for what you need, when you need it, without the burden of fixed costs.
“No more tying up cash in equipment, materials or unused stock.”

Whether you need help on a specific project or guidance to scale your business, we’re always just a call away.
HEAVERS OF BRIDPORT CASE STUDY
Heavers of Bridport had been fabricating for over 25 years – but the pressures of manufacturing were starting to weigh heavily. With the business growing steadily, it became clear that time and energy were being pulled away from the areas that mattered most.
By outsourcing their fabrication to us, they were able to remove operational strain, refocus their team, and continue delivering the high standards their reputation was built on.
HEAVERS OF BRIDPORT CASE STUDY
“We’d considered changing our business model for years, but legacy, pride, and loyalty to our staff made it a tough call. While we took great pride in manufacturing quality frames, the reality was it was holding us back. As a smaller business producing 50–100 frames a week, the pressures of Brexit, rising costs, and the need for ongoing machinery investment forced us to reassess. After meeting with four VEKA fabricators, we chose Glazerite — their values, ambition, and commitment to investment aligned with ours. Once we saw what they could offer, the decision to close our fabrication operation and focus fully on installation became clear.”
