Global stationary manufacturer Staedtler is the latest new arrival to Bocam Park, an established 12 acre business park in Pencoed. 

Staedtler has relocated from Pontyclun near Llantrisant to 6,974 sq ft offices at Bocam Park which is developed by Macob.

Staedtler is one of the leading suppliers in the global writing and drawing instruments market. It has a market presence in over 150 countries, employing more than 2,500 people world-wide. It is also Europe’s biggest manufacturer of pencils.

John Evans, managing director of Staedtler said, “Following professional guidance from Roger Thomas of Cooke and Arkwright we settled on Bocam Park, which is in a pleasant and easily accessible location and in keeping with Staedtler’s policy of providing its employees with a quality working environment.”

Mr Thomas commented, “Having undertaken an extensive search and despite competition from other developments in Bridgend and the surrounding areas, Bocam Park was a clear winner and will be an excellent new base for Staedtler.”

Bocam Park is located just off junction 35 of the M4.  Tenants include Nike Design, The Welsh Blood Service, Bro Morgannwg Health Trust, Fire Brigades Union, Clay Shaw Thomas, Skanska, Fields associates, Illium Insurance, BAM Nuttall and MITIE.
