After a fantastic Bed Show 2022, the Wolf Team were delighted to be Finalists in the Component Supplier of the Year category at the 2022 NBF Awards.

We are incredibly proud of all our employees who made this success possible.

The judges commented:

“Wolf Components has come on in leaps and bounds in such a short space of time, and it is not just due to favourable circumstances that the spring innovator is fast finding favour with bedmakers across the nation.

In its entry, Wolf demonstrated comprehensive evidence of evolution, with particular reference to sustainability and staff welfare – all crucial areas in which progress could mean the difference between making or breaking for suppliers in coming years.”

Thanks to the NBF for the awards evening and congratulations to John Cotton Group Ltd. this years winners.

As a relationship-led business, customer service is always at the forefront and goes way beyond simply delivering on time. Evolving away from the traditional salesperson-led exclusive contact we encourage our team to liaise directly across all our customers departments for maximum effect.

The whole Wolf Team is now looking forward to continuing to develop these relationships with customers both new and existing at our industry’s main event, The Bed Show, later this month.

We’ll be attending the show for the second year, so do come and say hello to our fantastic team and hear how we are doing customer service differently.

Wolf Components is pleased to confirm that we have again renewed our finance facilities with HSBC, Europe’s largest bank.  This will ensure Wolf has the financial backing to continue to invest in our business growth and development, essential in meeting customer needs.

This facility including an increased asset finance line for Wolf was again successfully put together by the HSBC South Yorkshire Corporate Team led by Lee Manterfield supported by Simon Kitchingman and Paul Byrne.

July sees the start of further expansion at Wolf Components with the securing of an additional site to focus on specialised product production including VSS mini springs along with an enlarged product development and testing resource.
 
The acquisition of this second building now gives us the required space in our existing factory to expand unit production with the addition of new high speed machines arriving later this year

The bunting is up and flag is flying! Today we’re starting the Jubilee early at Wolf Components and celebrating together with a nice piece of cake to mark this historic event.

Many thanks to our wonderful local bakery Staniforths for providing the delicious bakes.

Congratulations to Her Majesty on reaching this historic milestone from everyone at Wolf Components and we thank you for your 70 years of service and dedication to the United Kingdom and Commonwealth.

As an independent British company, we are proud to be playing our part in growing manufacturing in the UK.

We wish everyone wonderful Jubilee celebrations.

What could be more exciting than spending a day seeing what work is really all about?
 
Today our Maintenance Engineer, John has been participating in a ‘go to work with your parent’ day initiative organised by his son’s school. This is a fantastic way to show children all the different roles required to run a business and to have a better idea of what to expect when they eventually join the workforce.
 
We’re delighted to have Sam with us today to learn everything involved in making our products and how the team work together to transform wire into finished pocket springs!

As a professional British manufacturer, Wolf Components is supporting the UN Race to Zero campaign by committing to the SME Climate Hub journey to Net Zero. 

By acting together businesses can collectively take action to reduce the carbon footprint of supply chains enhancing sustainability of products for our customers.  As a procurement differentiator our spring products will count towards reducing indirect scope 3 carbon for our customers. 

Wolf has been progressing projects to ensure we can achieve the sustainability aspirations contained within these goals including investing in more efficient machinery and processes, EV charging and vehicles, greater load utilisation for logistics, higher compression roll packs, renewable power and LED factory lighting.  Clearly it is only by collective action across supply chains that business will make any difference and we look forward to reporting our progress on further projects in due course.             

As an independent family business, we feel supporting our employees is essential to our growth and success.  With wellbeing being more important than ever, we are delighted that our Administration Manager, Gemma Allsopp has successfully completed her Mental Health First Aider qualification.

The MHFA course gives an in-depth understanding of mental health issues and how it can affect wellbeing in the workplace alongside the skills to assist, support and direct employees to the right help and resources.

Congratulations Gemma on your fantastic achievement!

When one of our employees let us know that his daughter’s football team were looking for sponsorship, Wolf Components were delighted to help out.

At last weekend’s match, the Scawthorpe Scorpions Under 10’s were staying warm and looking ready to win in their new rain jackets.

Scawthorpe Scorpions are one of Doncaster’s oldest and biggest Junior Football Clubs, playing in the Sheffield and Hallamshire League. Wolf are privileged to be supporting young people in a community team and to further our links with the local area as we grow.

We wish the team all the best for this season!

We had great fun yesterday drawing our annual Christmas raffle and huge thanks to everyone who donated prizes and gifts.

This year we are proud to support local charity, Hallam FM and Greatest Hits Radio Cash for Kids to help ensure that every child wakes up to a gift on Christmas Day.
