UK Glazers Union Glass buys Armada Glass in Strategic Expansion Move

PLYMOUTH, U.K. - EntSun -- Union Glass, a leading name in the South-West's glazing and fabrication sector, has announced the acquisition of Armada Glass, a respected specialist in bespoke interior glasswork. The acquisition marks a significant step in Union Glass's growth strategy, bringing together two complementary businesses with a shared commitment to innovation, craftsmanship, and customer service.

This move follows Union Glass's £1.2 million investment in a new purpose-built headquarters and factory, as well as the successful launch of its steel fabrication division in 2023. With plans to expand further into aluminium commercial windows and curtain walling, Union Glass continues to establish itself as a full-service partner for residential, commercial, and specialist glazing projects.

Founded in 2003 and initially based in Saltash, Armada Glass has established a reputation for providing high-end interior glass solutions, including digitally printed splashbacks, fused glass wall art, and intricate decorative finishes. The company was an early adopter of cutting-edge production technologies, including the Intermac Master One CNC machine, dedicated digital printing systems, a spray booth, and straight-line edger — assets that will now enhance Union Glass's already robust fabrication capacity.

"This is a highly strategic acquisition that enhances both our creative and technical capabilities," said Nigel Brown, Operations Director at Union Glass. "Armada's design-led approach and artisanal skillset are second to none. By aligning that with our large-scale production and installation expertise, we're able to offer customers something truly unique — a joined-up service that doesn't compromise between design and delivery."

Under the new structure, Armada Glass will retain its name and creative identity, continuing to lead on design and bespoke interiors. In the short term, it will remain operational from its existing premises, with plans to integrate into Union Glass's new facility over the coming months. No jobs will be lost during the transition, and the combined team is expected to grow as both companies scale their operations.

"Becoming part of Union Glass is a natural progression for Armada Glass," said Tony Burke and Mark Andrews, founders of Armada Glass. "It's exciting to see a strong future for the company, with plenty of creative potential ahead."

The combined business now operates a fleet of nine specialist vehicles, with an expanded machine park supporting everything from high-volume unit production to custom one-off designs. The partnership brings together over 50 years of collective experience in glass processing, installation, and design, enabling a new level of agility and service in the region's glazing sector.
