Champion Mouldings, Radcliffe, Manchester

Champion Mouldings, based in Radcliffe, Manchester, is a long‑established manufacturer specialising in high‑quality mouldings and components for a wide range of industries. Their facility is a hub of precision engineering and production, and like many industrial sites, the building itself plays a vital role in reflecting the professionalism and reliability of the company. When the external cladding and internal pump room began to show signs of age and wear, Champion Mouldings turned to Cladding Coatings to deliver a refurbishment solution that would restore both appearance and performance.

The project brief was clear: the external metal cladding and roller shutter doors required a full refurbishment to improve aesthetics and protect the building envelope, while the internal pump room needed a thorough clean and redecoration to ensure a safe, efficient, and professional working environment. Champion Mouldings wanted a finish that would not only look impressive but also stand the test of time, resisting the demanding conditions of an industrial site.

At Cladding Coatings, we pride ourselves on offering services that go beyond simple application. One of the first steps we took was to provide a digital mock‑up of the external wall cladding. This free service allows clients to visualise colour options before committing, ensuring the final choice aligns with their brand identity and expectations. For Champion Mouldings, this mock‑up was invaluable in helping them select a colour scheme that complemented their facility and reinforced their professional image.

Once the colour scheme was agreed, our team began the external refurbishment. Preparation is always the foundation of a successful coating project, so we carefully cleaned and prepared the metal cladding surfaces to remove dirt, debris, and any failing coatings. This step ensures that the new system adheres properly and delivers maximum durability.

We then applied a high‑quality coating system designed specifically for industrial cladding. This system provides long‑lasting protection against weathering, corrosion, and UV damage, while also delivering a smooth, uniform finish that enhances the building’s appearance. The roller shutter doors received the same meticulous treatment, ensuring consistency across the façade and reinforcing the professional look of the site. The transformation was immediate: the building exterior now presents a clean, modern, and well‑maintained image that reflects Champion Mouldings’ reputation for quality.

The internal pump room was another critical element of the project. As a space that houses essential equipment, it needed to be both functional and presentable. Our team began by thoroughly cleaning and degreasing all surfaces, removing residues that can compromise coatings and create safety hazards. Once the surfaces were prepared, we repainted the walls and ceiling, using coatings that provide a bright, clean finish and improve light reflectivity within the room. This not only enhances the visual appeal but also contributes to a safer working environment.

The pipework was also carefully prepared and repainted. Industrial pipework can be prone to wear and corrosion, so applying a protective coating helps extend its lifespan and ensures it continues to function reliably. The result was a pump room that looked refreshed, professional, and ready to support the company’s operations.

While the visual transformation was striking, the value of this project extends far beyond aesthetics. By refurbishing the external cladding, Champion Mouldings has strengthened the building envelope, protecting it against environmental damage and reducing the need for costly future repairs. The roller shutter doors, now coated with a durable system, will continue to operate smoothly while maintaining their appearance.

Inside the pump room, the refurbishment has created a cleaner, safer environment for staff and equipment. Degreased and freshly coated surfaces reduce risks associated with dirt and corrosion, while the bright finish improves visibility and working conditions. These practical benefits demonstrate how Cladding Coatings’ work supports both the operational efficiency and the professional image of our clients.

The refurbishment of the external cladding, roller shutter doors, and pump room has revitalised the site, delivering both immediate aesthetic improvements and long‑term protective benefits.
