Description

A glass manufacturer in south Wales is to close with the loss of 167 jobs.

Therm Tempered Limited, based in Llantrisant, made products including toughened and decorative glass and double glazing.

Administrator Baker Tilly had tried to keep the business going but blamed the competitive market and a fall in turnover over recent months.
