New Street Direction & Name Signs

We have now started to manufacture street direction and street name signs.

They are made using our Metro-Wood environment friendly material along with engraved name plates and signs to create these new products.

Metrolite success

Well done to John Derbyshire who successfully passed his entry Level 3 Literacy exam. John works at Metrolite and is on the Workstep programme which is designed to help people with disabilities find suitable employment.

John has a learning disability and last year was tested and diagnosed as being 'at risk' of having dyslexia. After attending weekly literacy classes John took his exam in December 2006.
