Windscreen repair company relocates to new premises in Lincoln

National Windscreens has relocated to new premises at Riverside Enterprise Park on Skellingthorpe Road in Saxilby, Lincoln, after securing a lease on a new 2,000 sq ft workshop and yard.

The move from their previous location at Wainer Close in Lincoln was facilitated by Eddisons, working with Banks Long & Co as the letting agent on behalf of Castle Square Securities.

National Windscreens is the second national brand to occupy space in the new Phase 6 of the park, following Screwfix as the anchor tenant.

The new workshop will allow the company to implement new operational practices to support Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS) technologies, as part of their wider sustainable growth strategy, which includes additional workshop relocations across the UK.

Andy Rae, operations director, said: “In seeking new premises in Lincoln, the key requirements were high-quality premises in an accessible location. The advance of ADAS in our automotive specialism means glazing work needs a formal workshop environment with integrated tech installations that no longer fit the previous mobile windscreen replacement model of the past.

“The advantages of a ‘clean’ brand new-build unit had immediate appeal. Plus, in being adjacent to the A57 at Saxilby, west of Lincoln, Riverside Park was soon in our sights for the relocation of our Lincoln workshop and our local expert workforce from our previous site.”

Cameron McRae, of Eddisons’ Lincoln agency on Westgate, said: “Riverside Enterprise Park has fast become an established commercial trading location. “National Windscreen, as the second large brand operator at this latest phase of the Park, gives another national covenant strength, and that’s a testament to it being a sought-after location by high-profile occupiers.”
