Vaillant has opened a £40 million manufacturing plant in Derby, adding 200 jobs to the local economy. The facility at Indurent Park will produce hot water cylinders, including the new uniSTOR high-recovery range, set to begin production next month.
The plant, which spans 12,200 sq m, includes manufacturing and warehousing space and incorporates sustainability features such as rainwater harvesting, energy-efficient lighting, and heat pump technology.
Vaillant, a global heating and cooling solutions provider with 17,000 employees, has expanded its UK manufacturing presence to meet the growing demand for low-carbon heating solutions. The company previously launched the UK’s first boiler manufacturer-led heat pump plant in 2022.
Energy Secretary Ed Miliband highlighted the plant’s role in supporting local employment and advancing the UK’s low-carbon transition. Vaillant Group UK’s plant director, Joe Dunn, emphasised the company’s commitment to Derbyshire, its historic roots, and its continued investment in sustainable heating technology.
