A metalworking firm is eyeing up expansion in Ireland.

Brighouse-based Arkoni is set to expand into the Irish construction market after linking up with Dublin-based Linham Construction.

The agreement has led to the formation of Arkoni Ireland with the remit of providing fully certified fire-rated, security and steel glazing systems for a growing number of public and private building projects across the Irish Republic and Northern Ireland.

Arkoni supplies a wide range of fire-rated and steel glazing systems as well as architectural and bespoke metalwork for commercial, residential and public sector construction projects across Great Britain.

Arkoni Ireland managing director Frank Flynn said: “This is a great opportunity for Arkoni and Linham to introduce the highest spec fire glazing solutions into the Irish market.”

Arkoni managing director and founder Mark Prentice said: “We foresee only growth across Ireland in the short to medium term with our profile set to expand in partnership with Linham.

“We are very much on the same wavelength.”
