A specialist structural timber company based in Wirral and working throughout the UK has acquired three industrial units that were owned by Wirral Council to help them expand.

SticX Limited is a specialist timber frame company whose work spans residential developments, social housing, education, student accommodation, and self-build projects. They offer a range of timber framing solutions across the UK in the Modern Methods of Construction sector, providing various systems, including open panel frames, pre-insulated panels, metal-web joists and roof trusses among others.

Based at Kelvinside in Seacombe they approached the council in late 2023 about acquiring vacant council owned warehouses, immediately adjacent to their existing facility.

Since then the council has been working with SticX Limited, which is based in the Wirral Freeport area, to see what help can be given with their growth and expansion plans.

The company currently employs 48 people and plans to increase this to 76 employees by 2031 as a direct result of their expansion, and to at least double production capacity.
