International wiring accessory manufacturer Contactum has expanded its UK presence with new office and warehouse space at Croxley Green Business Park.

Contactum, which supplies a range of electrical wiring accessories and circuit protection equipment to companies all over the world, employs more than 100.

Owned by the $2.5 billion Saudi-owned company Alfanar, Contactum will create a new sales and marketing office and warehouse space at Croxley Green where the firm will join other new tenants including Ferrero and Nuffield Health - along with Kodak which recently moved from Hemel Hempstead.

In a deal done by Contactum’s retained agent Tim Garratt of property consultant Innes England, the company will take up a 20,000 sq ft unit on a ten-year lease. 

Contactum’s MD Neil Clydesdale said of the move: "We have ambitious growth plans both in the UK and abroad and as part of this strategy, and continued increasing demand for our products, we needed to increase our logistics capacity and bring together our workforce in a larger and more modern location.

"We selected Croxley Green for its excellent forward-thinking working environment and the unit offers the spec and the space we need for continued expansion."
