Siddall and Hilton Products

Recognising that its people are its most valuable assets is key to welded wire mesh manufacturer Siddal & Hilton’s ambition to become the local employer of choice in Brighouse, West Yorkshire.
‍
The long-established firm, whose mesh products are used in applications such as high security fencing, industrial, and construction applications, is striving to develop a highly skilled, competent, and dedicated team and a culture of innovation and continuous learning.
In order to become a world class mesh manufacturer and top employer in its local area, Siddal & Hilton recognises the importance of developing a ‘one team’ ethos built on its core values of ‘trust’, ‘honesty’, ‘openness’, ‘integrity’, ‘commitment’ and ‘fun’, creating an environment that delivers outstanding levels of job satisfaction and recognition for generations to come.
‍
In combination with its ongoing recruitment drive, in July 2021 it launched a bespoke training programme for new starters, to equip them with the specialist skills they need to understand the nature of the work and operate the sophisticated machinery within six months – particularly important as the firm enjoys a period of growth and expansion that has seen it invest in new equipment.
‍
This investment, it says, marks a major milestone in its journey to becoming world class by not only having the best machinery on the market, but by investing in its people to have the skills to use it.
