Plater Group's Glossop site has had a long and varied history.
The buildings were originally constructed in 1902, by the Urban Electricity Supply Company, to provide power for the new Glossop Tramways. The first tram ran in August 1903 and the last on 24th December 1927.
The plot has been developed over the last 90 years, however some of the original rails can be seen around the site. The engine sheds pictured are still standing and now form part of Plater Production' spray drying manufacturing facility.
Over the years, Plater Group has promoted and sponsored many initiatives in support of local communities and charitable organisations, in Glossop and Staffordshire.
Local sporting clubs’ benefit from annual financial support, together with charities providing support to people living in neighbouring communities. The Plater Group team have taken part in several challenges raising funds for worthwhile charities.

More than just industrial chemicals
By building partnerships with our customers, Distribution helps them take advantage of our sourcing expertise, the latest chemical innovations and supply chain integration to provide tailored solutions.
Spray cooling is a process whereby a waxy material which is solid at normal ambient temperature is heated up to become liquid and then the liquid is atomised in a stream of cooled air and the droplets solidify as they cool back to ambient temperature.
This enables a waxy solid to be presented to the customer in an easily handled granular form.
Manipulation of the atomiser speed can modify the particle size produced to suit different customer requirements.
Several of our Spray Dryers are equipped with chiller units to enable operation as Spray Coolers.
