Time and attendance systems can help companies planning to expand their workforce

Time and attendance systems designed to easily add a large number of employees to a company’s roaster can play a very important role whenever firms decided to expand their premises and hire a large number of staff as a result.

This was exactly the case with private equity-backed toilet roll maker Accrol, who has officially opened its new 168,000 sq ft manufacturing facility in Leyland.

A pair of tissue converting lines have been installed at the facility, which will increase the company’s total converting capacity to 143,000 tonnes per year. Manufacturing began at the end of January 2017 and output is expected to steadily increase as new shift patterns are added over the coming weeks.

When both lines are fully manned, they will create more than 80 jobs taking Accrol’s total number of employees to almost 600. The facility has space for a further four converting lines.

Steve Crossley, Accrol chief executive, said: "This new facility marks another milestone in Accrol’s development, increasing our total production capacity by 25,000 tonnes to 143,000 tonnes per annum."
