Looks a very interesting factory to visit, very traditional with a typical 1970/80's in it layout.

Would like to go there ! , didn't know we actually produced panels here . BMH have the moulds(?) off site, Leeds I think, and they are pressed there and shipped to Witney for fabrication. It would make a good TM visit and they only request a donation to local charities. Groups need to be around 15 though.
