Problem
Following a major increase in orders from a national client, J Carter Construction needed to boost productivity and improve output quality.
Their existing setup could no longer keep up with the workload, and the team required a compact, high-performance edgebander that would fit their available space without compromising on capability.
After being recommended to ILEX Machinery by another North East manufacturer, Jake Carter explored the Masterwood range and was impressed by the advanced capabilities and user-friendly software.
He selected the Masterwood ME 309 Edgebander, a compact model designed for precision, reliability and consistent performance.
The machine was delivered and installed quickly, becoming the first Masterwood ME 309 Edgebander in the UK. Since installation, J Carter Construction has seen improved efficiency, faster turnaround and enhanced product quality, helping them meet growing demand with confidence.
“It’s the first edgebander we’ve purchased and it’s transformed our production. ILEX made the process straightforward, and it’s great to buy locally from people you trust.”
