Low-silica surface fabricator and installer, Roann, has become the latest member of the Worktop Fabricators Federation (WFF).
Founded back in 2020, the WFF is a non-profit trade association that promotes professionalism and collaboration across the worktop fabrication and stone masonry sectors.
With over 100 members, it champions best practices in health and safety, factory standards, and the use of high-quality equipment.
Wakefield-based Roann says it fabricates over 15,000 worktops per year from its purpose-built factory which houses over £2m worth of state-of-the-art stone manufacturing machines and equipment.
“Roann has been championing the best, and safest, working practices in the industry for over 30 years and it’s fantastic that our peers have come together to create the WFF,” said Scott Warton, Roann’s operations and technical director. “Membership sends a clear signal to customers and colleagues alike that we are committed to professionalism, best practices and fair trade in worktop fabrication and installation.
“As the industry continues to raise standards, collaboration between fabricators, suppliers, and industry bodies is key to building trust, promoting best practices in manufacturing, and highlighting the exceptional quality of our products. By working together, we can showcase the professionalism and innovation that define our long-established industry.”
Meanwhile, Nigel Fletcher, operations officer at WFF, commented: “We are actively seeking members of Roann’s calibre, who excel at what they do and can share best practices to elevate industry standards in quality and safety.
“Joining WFF is a strategic investment in excellence, offering access to a network of professionals committed to exceeding standards. Our members champion quality, safety, and premium service, safeguarding both our workforce and the wider industry.”
