Mapei UK has acquired new warehousing and offices as part of its ongoing expansion plans.
The new ‘mega-hub,’ titled 02 Distribution Centre, is located at Titan 10, Bilston, near Wolverhampton and spans over 260,000 sq. feet. It will provide warehousing for Mapei’s increasing product lines for construction projects from basement to roof, including installation solutions for ceramic, stone, resilient, textile and wood flooring, structural waterproofing, roofing, concrete repair, paints and coatings, industrial flooring, external wall insulation, underground construction and more.
Mapei’s Midlands-located warehouses will continue to transfer to the 02 location during 2026 as part of its ongoing strategy to bring all logistics ‘under one roof’.
Described as a premium facility located just four miles from the M6, Titan 10 Bilston is said to provide excellent connectivity for the supplier’s regional and national distribution. The expected average Mapei tonnage that will be dispatched from the warehouse is 15,152 Tn/month.
Established in the UK in 1989, Mapei UK employs more than 450 people throughout the UK and Ireland. The firm cemented its commitment to the local market in 2004 with the completion of a brand-new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Halesowen, West Midlands. It now also has a concrete admixtures manufacturing plant in Speke, Liverpool and two further manufacturing facilities in Burnley, a Mapei Academy training facility in Halesowen and a Specification Centre in Clerkenwell, London.
Office space at the 02 Distribution Centre will house Mapei UK’s Technical Services and Marketing Departments.
Phil Breakspear, Mapei UK Managing Director, explained: “The new Distribution Centre will enable us to further enhance our customer service, efficiency and capacity. Being close to our main Halesowen plant, and in such a connected central location, it also brings additional sustainability benefits, enabling us to optimise transport routes and implement new initiatives from a central site.”
