Mr Latimer said: “We have been working with the directors since the start of the year and reviewed the options available but creditor pressure has increased leaving the directors with no alternative but to seek the protection of an Administration appointment.”

“The business has ceased trading and all employees have been made redundant.

“We will be carrying out a sales process in order to maximise value for creditors.”

The firm’s website said it had developed “a national reputation in the industrial and commercial glazing market” in 45 years in business .
