Purpose-built facility for Rollins Marine
S
ince its conception in 2008, Rollins Marine has proven itself to be a trustworthy and reliable partner to the marina
services industry throughout the globe. The latest news from the Rollins team is its relocation to a purpose-built office and production facility on the Lincolnshire/Cambridgeshire border on a one and a quarter acre site at: The Current Buildings, Jarvis Gate, Sutton St. James, Spalding, Lincolnshire PE12 0ER, United Kingdom. The relocation had been planned
to take place previously. However, the award of the prestigious Sea City Marina project in Kuwait halted this plan and an extension was added
instead to the temporary location in order to facilitate the demand for the manufacture of some 1,200 service pedestals, shore panels and associated equipment, including sanitation pump-out from LeeStrom GmbH of Germany.
During the last two-three years
Rollins has strengthened its internal and external resource of staff as a part of the relocation and a new four-man team, headed by General Manager Stuart Baines, has been developed to offer specialist consultation, design and installation services. The team are skilled in all aspects of the marina industry and offer advice, contract and project management to the wide range of clientele, which rely on the fast-response problem solving of all the Rollins team.
