Trade fabricator Fentrade has further strengthened its management team with the appointment of Nigel Davies as its new Technical Manager.
Chris Reeks, Director of Fentrade, said: “We are delighted to welcome Nigel to the team. His wide-ranging experience and understanding of every facet of the industry will be invaluable to both our company and our customers.”
Nigel said: “I’m excited to have joined Fentrade. Their ambitious growth plans immediately struck a chord with me. It was clear we shared the same values and a strong commitment to doing things the right way.”
In his new role, Nigel will be focused on keeping Fentrade at the forefront of regulatory change, ensuring its customers are supported in meeting their compliance obligations. His technical expertise and background also complement Fentrade’s growth in the commercial sector, and will allow the company to tender for larger more complex projects
He commented: “As compliance with industry standards and regulations continues to grow in importance, fabricators and installers face increasing pressure to provide thorough documentation that demonstrates product compliance. Choosing the right systems and partners throughout the supply chain has never been more critical. My goal is to help Fentrade stand out as a valuable aluminium partner that’s not just capable of offering products, but real technical value too.”
Nigel brings over 30 years of experience in the fenestration industry, having held key roles with well-known fabricators and façade contractors. He also spent six years at Aluk, where he provided dedicated support to both direct and indirect customers. In addition, Nigel has successfully run his own façade design business, further broadening his expertise.
Fentrade is a fast-growing fabricator known for its commitment to high-quality, expertly manufactured aluminium products supported by an exceptional service ethos. It manufactures a full range of fenestration products from respected industry names including Aluk, VBH, Kestrel and Jack Aluminium.
Aluminium Vision Ltd acquired the company in April 2025 with the intention of further cementing its position as the go-to fabricator for commercial and residential aluminium. Nigel’s appointment is one of the first steps in that intention.
