Cartwright Conversions opens flagship Belton site22 October 2019

Cartwright Conversions has opened a new multi-million flagship manufacturing base in Belton, Lincolnshire.

The 28-acre site gives it four times the production capacity of its previous home near Doncaster, with room for further expansion to meet rising demand for its bespoke vehicle conversions.

The company – part of the award-winning Cartwright Group – was established in 2016 and performs a range of conversions including Motability vehicles, ambulances, welfare vehicles, mobile banks and police vehicles.

The range extends to conversions of trailers into mobile eye-testing and breast-screening units as well as libraries, with trailers supplied by sister company Cartwright from its base in Altrincham, Cheshire.

The production facility in Belton has four production lines, stores, electrical and quality departments, extensive parking and planning permission for an extension to accommodate future growth.

The company says it has plans to increase the workforce from 80 to 250 and to introduce an in-house training scheme for workers with transferable skills and, eventually, to establish an apprenticeship programme.

Steve Shaw, managing director of Cartwright Conversions, says the new facility offers “enormous capacity for growth”, adding: “Our aim is to become the go-to company for anyone who wants a conversion.”
